Abstract
An integrated circuit includes a first transistor including a first current electrode, a second current electrode, and a bulk tie; a first conductive line coupled between the first current electrode and a first supply voltage; and a second conductive line coupled to the second current electrode. A resistance of the second conductive line is at least 5 percent greater than a resistance of the first conductive line. The bulk tie is coupled to a second supply voltage. The first supply voltage is different than the second supply voltage.
