ABSTRACT:
A resistive structure formed on an integrated circuit substrate is disclosed. The structure includes a plurality of resistive elements serially connected. Each resistive element comprises a forward biased semiconductor junction and a reverse biased semiconductor junction. The resistive value of each resistive element can be varied with a preferred range being from about 500 megohms to about 5 gigaohms. In fabrication, the multiple resistive elements are electrically and physically simultaneously formed and are connected in series to obtain higher resistive values. The disclosed resistive structure allows very high resistances to be obtained using very little planar surface area.
