  • Publication number: 20210358531
    Abstract: A memory and an electronic device are provided. The memory includes a storage element (10), a first transistor (21), a second transistor (22), a first bit line (BLA), and a second bit line (BLB). The storage element (10) is coupled to the first bit line (BLA) and the second bit line (BLB) by separately using the first transistor (21) and the second transistor (22), and the first transistor (21) and the second transistor (22) are turned on during a write operation. When the foregoing solution is used, compared with providing a required write current by using one transistor, providing the write current by using the two transistors may enable a smaller transistor to meet a requirement, thereby reducing an area required by the entire memory. In addition, the memory in this application can still support a dual-port feature in a read operation.

  • Patent number: 10181403
    Abstract: Multigate devices and fabrication methods that mitigate the layout effects are described. In conventional processes to fabricate multigate semiconductor devices such as FinFET devices, long isolation cut masks may be used. This can lead to undesirable layout effects. To mitigate or eliminate the layout effect, fabrication methods are proposed in which the interlayer dielectric (ILD) layer remains intact at the gate cut location during the fabrication process.
