Abstract:
A semiconductor device includes first, second, and third conductive lines, each with a respective line portion formed over a substrate and extending in a first direction and with a respective branch portion extending from an end of the respective line portion in a direction different from the first direction. The branch portion of a middle conductive line is disposed between and shorter than the respective branch portions of the outer conductive lines such that contact pads may be formed integral with such branch portions of the conductive lines.
Abstract:
A semiconductor device includes a driving active region defined in a substrate and at least three driving transistors disposed at the driving active region. The driving transistors share one common source/drain, and each of the driving transistors includes individual source/drains being independent from each other. The common source/drain and the individual source/drains are disposed in the driving active region.
