7.3 LV/MV PWELL (LVPWELL)
=================================
This drawn layer is defined for LV & MV NMOS body . If this layer is used without DNWELL (outside DNWELL), the
body of all those transistors will by default be connected to P-substrate potential. Note that DV2_D layer must be used to
define MV Area. (Refer to 7.6 DV2_D rules).
If LVPWELL is used as resistor, it must be covered by RES_MK (for LVS purpose). Width of the resistor determined by
LVPWELL. Length by COMP-to-COMP space. RES_MK length shall be coinciding with resistor length (Touching
COMP each side) and width covering the width of LVPWELL.

**(B)LVPWELL outside DNWELL**
This part is to define LV & MV NMOS transistor outside DNWELL. If LV_PWELL is designed as a resistor,
then it is not allowed to be placed outside DNWELL. Also it is to be noted that all LVPWELL outside
DNWELL will be by default at P-substrate potential
