Abstract: An integrated circuit includes a first diffusion area for a first type transistor. The first type transistor includes a first drain region and a first source region. A second diffusion area for a second type transistor is separated from the first diffusion area. The second type transistor includes a second drain region and a second source region. A gate electrode continuously extends across the first diffusion area and the second diffusion area in a routing direction. A first metallic structure is electrically coupled with the first source region. A second metallic structure is electrically coupled with the second drain region. A third metallic structure is disposed over and electrically coupled with the first and second metallic structures. A width of the first metallic structure is substantially equal to or larger than a width of the third metallic structure.

Abstract: A semiconductor arrangement and methods of formation are provided. The semiconductor arrangement includes a first contact having first contact dimensions that are relative to first gate dimensions of at least one of a first gate or a second gate, where relative refers to a specific relationship between the first contact dimensions and the first gate dimensions. The first contact is between the first gate and the second gate. The first contact having the first contact dimensions relative to the first gate dimensions has lower resistance with little to no increased capacitance, as compared to a semiconductor arrangement having first contact dimensions not in accordance with the specific relationship. The semiconductor arrangement having the lower resistance with little to no increased capacitance exhibits at least one of improved performance or reduced power requirements than a semiconductor arrangement that does not have such lower resistance with little to no increased capacitance.
