An integrated circuit having a plurality of active areas separated from each other by a field region and a method for manufacturing the integrated circuit. A first polysilicon finger is formed over the first active area and the field region and a second polysilicon finger is formed over the second active area and the field region. A first dielectric layer is formed over the first active area and the field region and a second dielectric layer is formed over the second active area and the portion of the first dielectric layer over the field region. A first electrical interconnect is formed over and dielectrically isolated from the first polysilicon finger and a second electrical interconnect is formed over and dielectrically isolated from the second active area. The second electrical interconnect is electrically coupled to the second polysilicon finger.
