    Abstract: A device includes standard cells in a layout of an integrated circuit. The standard cells include a first standard cell and a second standard cell disposed next to each other. The first standard cell is configured to operate as an electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection circuit and includes a first gate and a second gate. The first gate includes a first gate finger and a second gate finger that are arranged over a first active region, for forming a first transistor and a second transistor, respectively. The second gate is separate from the first gate. The second gate includes a third gate finger and a fourth gate finger that are arranged over a second active region, for forming a third transistor and a fourth transistor, respectively. The first transistor and the second transistor are connected in parallel, and the third transistor and the fourth transistor are connected in parallel.
