  • the split gate oxide 22 provides a lessened Miller feedback capacitance since the gate-drain overlap is located at the thick section 28 of the split gate oxide 22 thereby lowering the Crss.

  • the step drain buffers lessen the degradation of R on , g m and I Dsat since the N ⁇ buffer layer 56 with significant overlap with the thick gate oxide section 28 allows the channel electrons to spread out deep away from the gate oxide 22 resulting in fewer filled traps in the gate oxide 22 .
