Abstract
Implementations of semiconductor devices may include: a plurality of drain fingers and a plurality of source fingers interdigitated with one another; at least one gate; and at gate bus formed to completely surround the plurality of drain fingers and the plurality of source fingers; wherein the gate bus is mechanically and electrically coupled to the at least one gate.
Claims20
A semiconductor device comprising:
- a depletion mode (D-mode) transistor comprising one or more source fingers, one or more drain fingers and one or more gates;
- and
- an enhanced mode (E-mode) transistor comprising one or more source pads, one or more drain pads and one or more gate pads;
- wherein the one or more gate pads of the D-mode transistor couple with the source pads of the E-mode transistor and an electrical ground.
