Abstract

An integrated circuit includes a first standard cell having a first pFET and a first nFET integrated, and having a first dielectric gate on a first standard cell boundary. The integrated circuit further includes a second standard cell being adjacent to the first standard cell, having a second pFET and a second nFET integrated, and having a second dielectric gate on a second standard cell boundary. The integrated circuit also includes a first filler cell configured between the first and second standard cells, and having a one-pitch dimension P. The first pFET and the second pFET are formed on a first continuous active region. The first nFET and the second nFET are formed on a second continuous active region. The first filler cell includes a third dielectric gate on a first filler cell boundary and a fourth dielectric gate on a second filler cell boundary.
