ABSTRACT:
A dynamic threshold voltage IGFET such as a MOSFET is operable at voltages of 0.6 volt or less. The threshold voltage of the transistor is reduced to zero volt or less by interconnecting the gate contact and the device body in which the voltage controlled channel is located. Several efficient connections using through hole plating or polycrystalline silicon gate extension are disclosed. A higher power supply voltage can be used by interconnecting the gate and device body through a smaller MOSFET.
