SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240032287 titled 'SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a semiconductor device that includes a substrate with a cell array region and a peripheral circuit region. The substrate has a first active region in the cell array region and a second active region in the peripheral circuit region. The device also includes word lines that extend in a first direction, a bit line that extends in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction, and first pad separation patterns on the word lines. There is a cell pad structure between two adjacent first pad separation patterns, and a second pad separation pattern adjacent to the cell pad structure.
- The semiconductor device includes a substrate with separate regions for cell array and peripheral circuit.
- It has word lines that extend in one direction and a bit line that extends in a perpendicular direction.
- There are first pad separation patterns on the word lines, and a cell pad structure between two adjacent patterns.
- A second pad separation pattern is adjacent to the cell pad structure.
Potential applications of this technology:
- This semiconductor device can be used in various electronic devices such as smartphones, tablets, and computers.
- It can be used in memory chips, microprocessors, and other integrated circuits.
Problems solved by this technology:
- The separate regions for cell array and peripheral circuit help in optimizing the performance and functionality of the device.
- The word lines and bit lines allow for efficient data storage and retrieval.
- The pad separation patterns and cell pad structure help in organizing and connecting different components of the device.
Benefits of this technology:
- Improved performance and functionality of electronic devices.
- Efficient data storage and retrieval.
- Enhanced organization and connectivity of components in the semiconductor device.
