Embodiments of a cascode amplifier (CA) include a bottom transistor with a relatively thin gate dielectric and higher ratio of channel length to width and a series coupled top transistor with a relatively thick gate dielectric and a lower ratio of channel length to width. A cascode current mirror (CCM) is formed using a coupled pair of CAs, one forming the reference current (RC) side and the other forming the mirror current side of the CCM. The gates of the bottom transistors are tied together and to the common node between the series coupled bottom and top transistors of the RC side, and the gates of the top transistors are coupled together and to the top drain node of the RC side. The area of the CCM can be substantially shrunk without adverse affect on the matching, noise performance and maximum allowable operating voltage.

Disclosed are a CMOS sensor and a method of fabricating the CMOS sensor. The method includes the steps of: forming a first USG layer on an entire surface of a semiconductor substrate including a cell area and a scribe area; masking the cell area, and then removing the first USG layer formed on the scribe area; forming a SiN layer on the entire surface of the semiconductor substrate; masking the cell area, and then removing the SiN layer formed on the scribe area; forming a second USG layer on the entire surface of the semiconductor substrate; and masking the scribe area, and then removing the second USG layer formed on the cell area. The USG layer is only formed on the scribe layer without the SiN layer, so that SiN particles do not drop onto the USG layer during the sintering process.

A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device includes steps (a) to (d). The step (a) is a step of forming a first insulating film and a nitride film on a semiconductor substrate in this order. The step (b) is a step of removing said first insulating film and said nitride film in a first region while leaving said first insulating film and said nitride film in a second region. The step (c) is a step of forming a second insulating film on said semiconductor substrate in said first region. Here, a thickness of said second insulating film is different from that of said first insulating film. A third insulating film is formed on said nitride film in said second region along with the formation of said second insulating film. The step (d) is a step of removing said third insulating film and said nitride film in said second region.
