US Patent 11935882 Static random access memory device

A semiconductor device including a static random access memory (SRAM) device includes a first SRAM array including a first plurality of bit cells arranged in a matrix; a second SRAM array including a second plurality of bit cells arranged in a matrix; and a plurality of abutting dummy cells disposed between the first SRAM array and the second SRAM array. Each of the plurality of abutting dummy cells includes a plurality of dummy gate electrode layers and a plurality of dummy contacts. The semiconductor device further includes a first-type well continuously extending from the first SRAM array to the second SRAM array. The first-type well is in direct contact with portions of the plurality of dummy contacts.
