Disclosed are a pixel and a compact memory-in-pixel display (e.g., implemented in a fully-depleted semiconductor-on-insulator processing technology platform). A block of electronic components for a pixel includes a memory cell array, a driving circuit for an LED, and a logic circuit connected between the memory cell array and driving circuit. The memory cell array is above a Pwell, the driving circuit is above an adjacent Nwell, and the logic circuit includes P-type transistors on the Nwell and N-type transistors on the Pwell. A pixel array is above alternating P and N wells with a single buried Nwell below. Specifically, each column of pixels is above adjacent elongated P and N wells and, within each column, adjacent pixels have mirrored layouts. Furthermore, adjacent columns of pixels are above two elongated wells of one type and a shared elongated well of the opposite type therebetween and the adjacent columns have mirrored layouts.
