SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICES INCLUDING UPPER AND LOWER SELECTORS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18347973 titled 'SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICES INCLUDING UPPER AND LOWER SELECTORS

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a semiconductor device with a lower stack structure and an upper stack structure.

  • The lower stack structure includes a lower word line, while the upper stack structure includes an upper word line.
  • A decoder is located adjacent to both the lower and upper stack structures.
  • A signal interconnection is connected to the decoder.
  • A lower selector is connected to the signal interconnection and the lower word line.
  • An upper selector is connected to the signal interconnection and the upper word line, but is isolated from direct contact with the lower selector.


Original Abstract Submitted

A semiconductor device includes a lower stack structure that includes a lower word line, an upper stack structure that is on the lower stack structure and includes an upper word line, a decoder that is adjacent to the lower stack structure and the upper stack structure, a signal interconnection that is connected to the decoder, a lower selector that is connected to the signal interconnection and further connected to the lower word line, and an upper selector that is connected to the signal interconnection, isolated from direct contact with the lower selector, and further connected to the upper word line.
