Abstract: A plural differential pair may include a first semiconductor fin having first and second drain areas. First and second body areas may be disposed on the fin between the first and second drain areas. A source area may be disposed on the fin between the first and second body areas. The plural differential pair may include a first pair of fin field effect (FinFET) transistors and a second pair of FinFET transistors. The plural differential pair may include first and second top fin areas projecting from respective portions of a top side of the first and second body areas of the fin. The first and second top fin areas may each have a width that is wider than the first and second body areas of the fin.

Abstract: A multiple-patterned semiconductor device and a method of manufacture are provided. The semiconductor device includes one or more layers with signal tracks. The signal tracks have a quality characteristic. The semiconductor device also includes repeater banks to repower signals. The method of manufacture includes defining portions of layers with photomasks having signal track patterns, determining a quality characteristic of the signal track patterns, and selecting a photomask for etching vias.

Abstract: A semiconductor device has a FinFET with at least two independently controllable FETs on a single fin. The fin may have a body area with a width between two vertical sides, each side has a single FET. The fin also may have a top fin area that is wider than the body area and is electrically independent from the two FETs. The top fin area may be capable of receiving a body contact structure which may be connected to an electrical conductor as to regulate the voltage in the body area of the fin.
