Abstract: A semiconductor package includes a first semiconductor device and a second semiconductor device. The first semiconductor device includes a first semiconductor substrate, a first bonding structure and a memory cell. The second semiconductor device is stacked over the first semiconductor device. The second semiconductor device includes a second semiconductor substrate, a second bonding structure in a second dielectric layer and a peripheral circuit between the second semiconductor substrate and the second bonding structure. The first bonding structure and the second bonding structure are bonded and disposed between the memory cell and the peripheral circuit, and the memory cell and the peripheral circuit are electrically connected through the first bonding structure and the second bonding structure.

Abstract: Semiconductor device and methods of forming the same are provided. A semiconductor device according to one embodiment includes a dielectric layer including a top surface, a plurality of magneto-resistive memory cells disposed in the dielectric layer and including top electrodes, a first etch stop layer disposed over the dielectric layer, a common electrode extending through the first etch stop layer to be in direct contact with the top electrodes, and a second etch stop layer disposed on the first etch stop layer and the common electrode. Top surfaces of the top electrodes are coplanar with the top surface of the dielectric layer.

Abstract: Top via pattern for a bond pad structure has at least one first via group and at least one second via group adjacent to each other. The first via group has at least two line vias extending in a first direction. The second via group has at least two line vias extending in a second direction different from said first direction. The line via of the first via group does not cross the line via of the second via group.
