METHOD, APPARATUS, AND SYSTEM FOR IMPROVED CELL DESIGN HAVING UNIDIRECTIONAL METAL LAYOUT ARCHITECTURE
摘要:
At least one method, apparatus and system disclosed involves circuit layout for comprising a unidirectional metal layout. A first trench silicide (TS) formation is formed in a first active area of a functional cell. A first CA formation if formed above the first TS formation. A first vertical metal formation is formed in a first metal layer from the first active area to a second active area of the functional cell. The first vertical metal formation is formed offset relative to, and in contact with, the CA formation. A second TS formation is formed in a second active area of the functional cell. A second CA formation is formed above the second TS formation. The CA formation is formed offset the first vertical metal formation, operatively coupling the first and second active areas.
