Refer to table 4.1 in the text book.

Calculate the value of total resistance R .
L
R Rs
W
Substitute 500 /sq for Rs and 12 for W and 200 k for R .

200 10 12

4800

Therefore, layout 6 resistors with a width of 12 and length of 800 in series to make a total
length of 4800 and total resistance of 200 k as shown in Figure 1.

Refer to Figure 1.
A guard ring is included around the n-well resistor, to reduce the substrate noise affecting
the resistance of the n-well resistor.
If the n is not presented under the contacts, then the metal1 is directly connected to the
n-well, this forms a rectifying contact or a Schottky diode. Unless we need a Schottky
diode, one should never connect metal directly to the substrate or a well.
