ABSTRACT:
A power MOSFET100has a source metal112that contacts silicided source regions114through vias160etched in an insulating layer200. The silicide layer225provides for a relatively small but highly conductive contact and thus reduces RDSON. The insulating material may be any suitable material including and not limited to one or a combination of materials such as BPSG, PSG, silicon dioxide and silicon nitride. The insulating layer is relatively thin and does not extend deeply into the gate trench.
