    Abstract: An integrated circuit includes a semiconducting substrate (110), electrically conductive layers (120) over the semiconducting substrate, and a capacitor (130) at least partially embedded within the semiconducting substrate such that the capacitor is entirely underneath the electrically conductive layers. A storage node voltage is on an outside layer (132) of the capacitor. In the same or another embodiment, the integrated circuit may act as a 1T-1C embedded memory cell including the semiconducting substrate, an electrically insulating stack (160) over the semiconducting substrate, a transistor (140) including a source/drain region (142) within the semiconducting substrate and a gate region (141) above the semiconducting substrate, a trench (111) extending through the electrically insulating layers and into the semiconducting substrate, a first electrically insulating layer (131) located within the trench, and the capacitor located within the trench interior to the first electrically insulating layer.

    Abstract: An open bit line dynamic random access memory (DRAM) architecture uses a multiple layer bit line configuration to reduce coupling between switching bit lines in the device. In one approach, each successive cell within a row of DRAM cells is coupled to a bit line segment that is on a different metallization layer than a previous cell in the row. Shielding members are also provided between adjacent bit lines on a common metallization layer to further reduce noise coupling. Functionality is also provided for reducing the effect of word line to bit line coupling in the DRAM device using dummy signal injection techniques. In this manner, common mode noise that could otherwise saturate one or more sense amplifiers within the DRAM device is reduced or eliminated before such saturation can take place. In one approach, dummy cells and reference cells are provided for use in performing the signal injection. The principles of the present invention are particularly well suited for use within embedded DRAM structures where low charge storage capacity within individual cells reduces the signal voltage levels that are achievable.

    Abstract: A NOR architecture for selecting a word line driver in a DRAM is disclosed. Complements of separately decoded addresses in the low, mid and high ranges are used to select a final word line driver. The output of the word line driver is at a potential negative with respect to ground for a deselected word line and a positive potential more positive than the power supply potential for a selected word line.
