Abstract
An integrated circuit (IC) structure includes a first transistor and a second transistor. The first transistor includes a first active region and a first gate disposed on the first active region, in which the first gate has a first effective gate length along a first direction parallel to a lengthwise direction of the first active region. The second transistor includes a second active region and a second gate disposed on the second active region, and includes a plurality of gate structures arranged along the first direction and separated from each other, in which the second gate has a second effective gate length along the first direction, the second effective gate length is n times the first effective gate length, and n is a positive integer greater than 1.
