Abstract
Semiconductor devices and methods of forming the same are provided. In an embodiment, a semiconductor device includes a substrate including a core device region and an input/output (I/O) device region, a plurality of core devices in the core device region, each of the plurality of core devices including a first active region extending along a first direction, and a first plurality of input/output (I/O) transistors in the I/O device region, each of the first plurality of I/O transistors including a second active region extending along the first direction. The first active region includes a first width along a second direction perpendicular to the first direction and the second active region includes a second width along the second direction. The second width is greater than the first width.
