US 2026/0096207 A1 · INTEGRATED CIRCUIT DEVICE

Abstract

An integrated circuit (IC) device includes a plurality of first taps arranged in a plurality of first columns and a plurality of first rows, and a plurality of second taps arranged in a plurality of second columns and a plurality of second rows. The plurality of second taps has a type different from the plurality of first taps. Each first tap of the plurality of first taps extends continuously across multiple rows of first active regions. Each second tap of the plurality of second taps extends continuously across multiple rows of second active regions. The second active regions have a type different from the first active regions. Along a column direction of the plurality of first columns and the plurality of second columns, no first tap among the plurality of first taps overlaps any second tap among the plurality of second taps.
