Patent 12016169 was granted and assigned to Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company on June, 2024 by the United States Patent and Trademark Office.
A memory device includes a memory array having a plurality of memory cells. Each memory cell of the plurality of memory cells includes a substrate having a front side and a back side with a transistor of the memory cell being formed on the front side and the back side being opposite of the front side, a first interconnect layer on the front side to provide a bit line of the memory cell, a second interconnect layer on the front side to provide a word line of the memory cell, a third interconnect layer on the back side to provide a supply voltage to the memory cell and a fourth interconnect layer on the back side to provide a ground voltage to the memory cell, widths of the bit line and the word line being chosen to reduce current-resistance drop.
