ABSTRACT:
A structure and a device which allow low resistance connections to internal circuit devices comprising a double diffused leadout is described. The first leadout diffusion is lightly doped with dopant from either chemical group III or V to constitute N- or P- type material respectively. The lightly doped region has a high resistivity. The second diffusion is diffused, using a dopant from the same chemical group as the first dopant, into the first diffusion. The second diffusion is diffused with enough dopant to constitute N.sup.+ or P.sup.+ material and has a low resistivity. The double diffused leadout creates a low resistance connection to the internal circuitry of an IC device while maintaining breakdown with the protective overlayer.
