Abstract
An integrated circuit, illustratively an SRAM, with pull down gates symmetrically positioned with respect to the ground line is disclosed. The symmetric positioning helps to insure cell stability.
Claims3
A semiconductor integrated circuit comprising:
- at least one memory cell, said cell comprising
- a buried conductor;
- first and second gates positioned on opposite sides of said conductor;
- a first junction between said first gate and said buried conductor, said first gate controlling current flow from said first junction to said conductor;
- a second junction between said second gate and said buried conductor, said second gate controlling current flow from said second junction to said conductor.
