A Field Effect Transistor (FET) having a substrate; a plurality of active regions disposed on the substrate; and a laterally extending finger-like control electrode disposed on a portion of a surface of the substrate. The active regions are laterally spaced one from the other successively along the laterally extending finger-like control electrode. The laterally extending finger-like control electrode controls a flow of carriers through each one of the plurality of active regions between a source electrode and a drain electrode.
