Abstract
In one embodiment, an integrated circuit cell includes a first circuit component and a second circuit component. The first circuit component includes fin field-effect transistors (finFETs) formed in a high fin portion of the integrated circuit cell, the high fin portion of the integrated circuit including a plurality of fin structures arranged in rows. The second circuit component that includes finFETs formed in a less fin portion of the integrated circuit cell, the less fin portion of the integrated circuit including a lesser number of fin structures than the high fin portion of the integrated circuit cell.
