US Patent 9514264 Layouts of transmission gates and related systems and techniques

Layouts of transmission gates and related techniques and systems are described. An integrated circuit may include first and second transmission gates disposed in a column, and metal wires. The first transmission gate includes first and second control terminals, and the second transmission gate includes first and second control terminals. The metal wires extend between the first and second transmission gates in a direction substantially orthogonal to the column, and include a first control wire coupled to the first control terminals of the first and second transmission gates.
