Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim 93 words
A lateral PNP transistor device comprising, in combination, a base region of N type conductivity, an emitter region and a collector region of P type conductivity laterally spaced from each other located in surface portions of said base region, and separate planar surface electrical contacts to said base region to said emitter region and to said collector region, said emitter region having a depth of no greater than about 0.5 microns, said collector region having a greater depth than said emitter region and having a lower concentration of impurities than said emitter region.
