Abstract

A semiconductor device is provided. The semiconductor device includes a first conductive portion on a first side of a first shallow trench isolation (STI) region. The first conductive portion is formed within a first well having a first conductivity type. The first conductive portion has the first conductivity type. The first conductive portion is connected to an electro static discharge (ESD) circuit. A second conductive portion is on a second side of the first STI region. The second conductive portion is formed within a second well having a second conductivity type. The second conductive portion having the first conductivity type is connected to a first nanowire and an input output I/O port.
