Integrated Assemblies and Semiconductor Memory Devices - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18533410 titled 'Integrated Assemblies and Semiconductor Memory Devices

Simplified Explanation

The integrated assembly described in the abstract includes a CMOS region with fins extending across it on a first pitch. A circuit arrangement associated with the CMOS region includes segments of the fins and has a first dimension along a first direction. A second region proximate to the CMOS region has conductive structures extending along a second direction different from the first direction, with some of them electrically coupled with the circuit arrangement. The conductive structures are on a second pitch different from the first pitch, and the second dimension is substantially the same as the first dimension.

Original Abstract Submitted

Some embodiments include an integrated assembly having a CMOS region. Fins extend across the CMOS region and are on a first pitch. A circuit arrangement is associated with the CMOS region and includes segments of one or more of the fins. The circuit arrangement has a first dimension along a first direction. A second region is proximate the CMOS region. Conductive structures are associated with the second region. The conductive structures extend along a second direction different than the first direction. Some of the conductive structures are electrically coupled with the circuit arrangement. The conductive structures are on a second pitch different from the first pitch. A second dimension is a distance across said some of the conductive structures along the first direction, and the second dimension is substantially the same as the first dimension.
