    Abstract: An integrated circuit including a signal line layout is disclosed. A signal line layout may include a number of signal lines configured for conveying a number of signals. The signal line layout may further include a number of shield lines. Each signal line of the number of signal lines may be positioned adjacent a first shield line and a second shield line of the number of the shield lines. Further, first shield line may extend a length of an adjacent signal line and the second shield line may extend less than a length of the adjacent signal line. An electronic system including circuitry having one or more signal line layouts, and methods of forming signal line layout are also described.

    Abstract: A semiconductor device may include a multi-level wiring structure comprising a first-level wiring layer, a second-level wiring layer and an insulating layer between the first-level wiring layer and the second-level wiring layer. The device may also include a bond pad, a first wiring extending from the bond pad, and a second wiring overlapping at least in part with the first wiring through the insulating layer to be capacitively coupled to the first wiring. The first wiring and the second wiring may each be formed respectively as the first-level wiring layer and the second-level wiring layer. The device may also include a protection circuit configured to be DC coupled to the second wiring. The first-level wiring layer may include a redistribution layer (RDL).
