  • Patent number: 11916077
    Abstract: The present disclosure describes an apparatus with a local interconnect structure. The apparatus can include a first transistor, a second transistor, a first interconnect structure, a second interconnect structure, and a third interconnect structure. The local interconnect structure can be coupled to gate terminals of the first and second transistors and routed at a same interconnect level as reference metal lines coupled to ground and a power supply voltage. The first interconnect structure can be coupled to a source/drain terminal of the first transistor and routed above the local interconnect structure. The second interconnect structure can be coupled to a source/drain terminal of the second transistor and routed above the local interconnect structure. The third interconnect structure can be routed above the local interconnect structure and at a same interconnect level as the first and second interconnect structures.

  • Publication number: 20080113472
    Abstract: A film includes a removable base material, a resin layer and a plurality of arc elastomers. The resin layer is a partially-cured resin which is in a half-melting state with viscosity at a temperature higher than a first temperature and in a solid state without viscosity at a temperature lower than a second temperature, and the resin layer in a solid state is adhered on the base material. The arc elastomers are disposed inside the resin layer. The present invention further provides a chip packaging process using the film.
