Well pick-up region design for improving memory macro performance
Abstract:
Well pick-up regions are disclosed herein for improving performance of memory arrays, such as static random access memory arrays. An exemplary integrated circuit (IC) device includes a circuit region; a first well pick-up (WPU) region; a first well oriented lengthwise along a first direction in the circuit region and extending into the first WPU region, the first well having a first conductivity type; and a second well oriented lengthwise along the first direction in the circuit region and extending into the first WPU region, the second well having a second conductivity type different from the first conductivity type, wherein the first well has a first portion in the circuit region and a second portion in the first WPU region, and the second portion of the first well has a width larger than the first portion of the first well along a second direction perpendicular to the first direction.
