ABSTRACT:
A layout for a transistor in a standard cell is disclosed. The layout for a transistor includes an active region with at least one portion having a first edge and at least one portion having a second edge all perpendicular to a channel of the transistor; and a gate placed on top of the active region with a distance from an edge of the gate to the first edge being shorter than a distance from the edge of the gate to the second edge of the active region, wherein the active region is of a non-rectangular shape.
