An approach for providing SRAM bit cells with double patterned metal layer structures is disclosed. Embodiments include: providing, via a first patterning process, a word line structure, a ground line structure, a power line structure, or a combination thereof; and providing, via a second patterning process, a bit line structure proximate the word line structure, the ground line structure, the power line structure, or a combination thereof. Embodiments include: providing a first landing pad as the word line structure, and a second landing pad as the ground line structure; and providing the first landing pad to have a first tip edge and a first side edge, and the second landing pad to have a second tip edge and a second side edge, wherein the first side edge faces the second side edge.

A computer-readable software product is provided for executing a method of determining the location of a plurality of power rail vias in a semiconductor device. The semiconductor device includes an active region and a power rail. Locations of a first via and a second via are assigned along the power rail. The spacing between the location of the first via and the location of the second via is a minimum spacing allowable. The spacing between the location of the second via and the locations of structures in the active region which may electrically interfere with the second via is determined. The location of the second via is changed in response to the spacing between the location of the second via and the location of one of the structures in the active region being less than a predetermined distance.
