Patent attributes
A SRAM structure includes a first SRAM cell, a second SRAM cell arranged in mirror symmetry with the first SRAM cell along a first direction, a third SRAM cell arranged in mirror symmetry with the first SRAM cell along a second direction perpendicular to the first direction, and a fourth SRAM cell arranged in mirror symmetry with the third SRAM cell along the first direction and arranged in mirror symmetry with the second SRAM cell along the second direction. Each of SRAM cells includes a first and a second pull-down transistor. The SRAM structure further includes a contact bar extending in the second direction to sources of the second pull-down transistors of the first and third SRAM cells and extending in a third direction opposite to the second direction to sources of the second pull-down transistors of the second and fourth SRAM cells.
