    Abstract: Disclosed examples provide fabrications methods and integrated circuits with back ballasted NPN bipolar transistors which include an n-type emitter in a P doped region, a p-type base with a first side facing the emitter, and an n-type collector laterally spaced from a second side of the base, where the collector includes a first side facing the second side of the base, an opposite second side, a silicided first collector portion and a silicide blocked second collector portion covered with a non-conductive dielectric that extends laterally between the first collector portion and the second side of the collector to provide back side ballasting for lateral breakdown and low current conduction via a deep N doped region while the vertical NPN turns on at a high voltage.
