1959: Planar Technology

• Developed at Fairchild Semiconductor

• Planar Technology (Jean gy (Hoerni): base region is diffused into collector (substrate) and emitter region into the base

• Integrated Wiring (Robert Noyce): By covering the planarNoyce): By covering the planar transistor with an oxide, a layer of aluminum can be used on top to wire the device(s)

1961: First Commercial Planar ICs

• Based on the planar process by Hoerni and Noyce, Fairchild developed family of logic chips p y g pcalled resistors‐transistor logic(RTL)

Complementary MOS Transistors (CMOS)

• Fabricate PMOS and NMOS devices on the same substrate to build complementary MOS (CMOS)

• This is solved by using a p‐tub diffusion to create the background for the n‐channel devices
