               providing a first gate structure and a second gate                     
          structure on the oxide layer and overlying central portions of              
          the first and second wells, respectively;                                   
               performing a first LDD implant with ions of the first                  
          conductivity type having an ion kinetic energies of at least                
          about 70 keV and having a first ion dose in the range of about

          5 x 10  - 5 x 10 atoms/cm , said step of performing the first               
          LDD implant being conducted concurrently in the first and                   
          second wells such that portions of the second well that do not              
          underlie the second gate structure are converted to first LDD               
          layers of the first conductivity type;                                      

               protecting the second well and the second gate structure               
          from ion implantation;

          7 x 10  - 5 x 10  atoms/cm , said step of performing the                    
          second LDD implant being conducted in the first well such that              
          portions of the first well that do not underlie the first gate

          conductivity type; and
