Masks formed based on integrated circuit layout design having standard cell that includes extended active region

摘要

An integrated circuit layout that includes a first standard cell having a first transistor region and a second transistor region; a second standard cell having a third transistor region and a fourth transistor region. The first and second standard cells adjoin each other at side boundaries thereof and the first transistor region and the third transistor region are formed in a first continuous active region, and the second transistor region and the fourth transistor region are formed in a second continuous region.
