Patent attributes
An integrated circuit (IC) device includes a substrate, and a memory array layer having a plurality of transistors. First through fourth gate contacts are arranged along a first axis, and coupled to underlying gates of the plurality of transistors. First through fifth source/drain contacts in the memory array layer extend along a second axis transverse to the first axis, and are coupled to underlying source/drains of the plurality of transistors. The gate contacts and the source/drain contacts are alternatingly arranged along the first axis. A source line extends along the first axis, and is coupled to the first and fifth source/drain contacts. First and second word lines extend along the first axis, the first word line is coupled to the first and third gate contacts, and the second word line is coupled to the second and fourth gate contacts.
