Abstract
In one embodiment, a circuit may be formed by forming at least one bent-gate output stage transistor and at least one bent-gate input stage transistor. The bent-gate output stage transistor may be electrically isolated from an input to the bent-gate input stage transistor by forming at least one bent-gate grounded-gate transistor between the bent-gate output stage transistor and the input to the bent-gate input stage transistor.
