Abstract
An integrated circuit includes a first active area of a first conductivity type being coupled to an input/output (I/O) pad; a second active area of a second conductivity type, different from the first conductivity type, being coupled to a first supply voltage terminal; a plurality of first gate structures extending in a first direction to pass through the first and second active areas; and a first well of the second conductivity type extending along the first direction. The first and second active areas extend along a second direction different from the first direction in the first well, and the first active area is aligned with the second active area along the first direction.
