An improved solution for performing switching, routing, power limiting, and/or the like in a circuit, such as a radio frequency (RF) circuit, is provided. A semiconductor device that includes at least two electrodes, each of which forms a capacitor, such as a voltage-controlled variable capacitor, with a semiconductor channel of the device is used to perform the desired functionality in the RF circuit. The device includes electrodes that can provide high power RF functionality without the use of ohmic contacts or requiring annealin .
