  • Poly-load resistor for SRAM cell
    Patent number: 5885862
    Abstract: The inventive SRAM cell has a poly-load resistor which comprises a thick supply voltage (Vcc) interconnect, a thick driver interconnect on a thin load resistance region which is electrically connected to both interconnects. The novel poly-load resistor overcomes the problem of lateral diffusion from the interconnect regions into the load region. The resulting SRAM cell has a low Vcc interconnect resistance.
