A process for manufacturing an eDRAM device comprises fabricating semiconductor features on a semiconductor substrate, the semiconductor substrate including a DRAM area and logic area. The process also includes fabricating a first conductive layer in the DRAM area and in the logic area, the first conductive layer in communication with a first group of the semiconductor features. After fabricating the first conductive layer, a storage component is fabricated in communication with a second group of the semiconductor features within the DRAM area.
