A method is disclosed wherein the voltage of a semiconducting substrate can be locally pumped to a voltage different than the bulk of the semiconducting substrate generally. The local voltage may be pumped into a localized portion of the bulk substrate, or it may be pumped into a portion of the substrate that is isolated from the bulk substrate. This localized biasing may be used for various purposes, including the adjustment of body effect in a plurality of transistors, adjusting the threshold voltage of a capacitor, and reducing latch-up sensitivity of a transistor circuit.
