(Faggin, in a 2007 oral panel interview with David House CHM), and he showed how to make bootstrap load devices without an extra masking layer. Bootstrap loads in silicon gate are found throughout theAt Fairchild, Faggin also built bootstrap load devices in early 1970, using the silicon gate technology . The bootstrap load devices required the fabrication of good-quality capacitors on a chip that were thought impossible to manufacture with SGT without using an extra masking layer. Faggin, a physicist, came to the solution thanks to:(Faggin, in a 2007 oral panel interview with David House CHM), and he showed how to make bootstrap load devices without an extra masking layer.The buried contact and particularly the bootstrap load, were indispensable to obtain the required speed within the available power budget. When a “B” is shown next to a resistor symbol, a bootstrap load needs to be used.
