Abstract
This paper describes the development of a super-beta transistor capable of achieving current gains in excess of 1000. The basic structure (similar to collector diffused isolation) is shown, and a detailed description given, indicating the type of optimization achieved at low current levels and low saturation voltages. Cross sectional views and a photomicrograph show some of this transistor´s potential including bilateral capability.
