  • Integrated circuit manufacturing

Problems Solved

  • Efficient configuration of n-well and p-well in IC structure
  • Improved connectivity in IC devices

Benefits

  • Enhanced performance of PMOS and NMOS transistors
  • Increased reliability of IC devices


Original Abstract Submitted

A method of manufacturing an IC structure includes configuring each of an n-well and a p-well in a first IC die to have a first portion extending in a first direction and second and third portions extending from the first portion in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction, and forming IC devices including a first pickup structure electrically connected to the n-well and a second pickup structure electrically connected to the p-well. Forming the IC devices includes forming a PMOS transistor in the second or third portion of the n-well and forming an NMOS transistor in the second or third portion of the p-well.
