Abstract
An integrated circuit includes an SOI substrate having a semiconductor layer over a buried insulator layer; the semiconductor layer contains white space regions that include a PWELL region. An electronic device includes an NWELL region in the semiconductor layer, a dielectric over the NWELL region, and a polysilicon plate over the dielectric. A sacrificial NWELL ring is adjacent to and separated from the NWELL region by a first gap.
