  • Publication number: 20060175634
    Abstract: A device. The device includes two bipolar transistors electrically connected to each other. Each bipolar transistor of the two bipolar transistors may include a base contact and an emitter contact surrounding the base contact, wherein the emitters contacts of the two bipolar transistor are in electrical contact with each other. A first bipolar transistor of the two bipolar transistors may have a first wiring stack and a second bipolar transistor two bipolar transistors may have a second wiring stack, wherein the second wiring stack includes at least one more wiring level than the first wiring stack.

  • Publication number: 20050189618
    Abstract: A bipolar transistor having a base contact surrounded by an emitter contact. A plurality of wires extending from the base contact and the emitter contact of the bipolar transistor, wherein the wires of the base contact are stacked higher than the wires of the emitter contact. A device comprising a plurality of these bipolar transistors, wherein at least one side of each emitter contact abuts each adjacent transistor. Increasing the wiring stack of each row of transistors in the device as the distance between the row and the current input increases.
