Abstract
A transistor includes an active region bounded by an outer periphery and formed in a substrate. The active region includes sets of input fingers, output fingers, and common fingers disposed within the substrate and oriented substantially parallel to one another. The transistor further includes an input port, an output port, a first via connection disposed at the outer periphery of the active region proximate the input port and a second via connection disposed at the outer periphery of the active region proximate the output port. The second via connection has a noncircular cross-section with a second major axis and a second minor axis, the second major axis having a second major axis length, the second minor axis having a second minor axis length that is less than the second major axis length. The second major axis is oriented parallel to a longitudinal dimension of the input, output, and common fingers.
