Abstract

An integrated circuit is disclosed. In one embodiment, the integrated circuit includes a first area and a second area. The first area is stress engineered to provide enhanced mobility in a first channel that has a first width. The second area is stress engineered to provide enhanced mobility in a second channel that has a second width. The first channel and the second channel provide a combined current that is greater than a single current provided via a single channel having a single width that is substantially equal to the sum of the first width and the second width.
