INTEGRATED CIRCUIT WITH ACTIVE REGION JOGS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18362868 titled 'INTEGRATED CIRCUIT WITH ACTIVE REGION JOGS
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes an integrated circuit (IC) structure with specific components and their arrangements.
- The IC structure includes two gates, two source regions, a shared drain region, and an isolation region.
- The first gate has two portions extending in different directions, and the same is true for the second gate.
- The shared drain region connects the first portions of both gates.
- The first source region is separated from the shared drain region by the first gate, and the same is true for the second source region and the second gate.
- The isolation region is located between the first portions of both gates and has a quadrilateral pattern that borders the shared drain region.
Original Abstract Submitted
An IC structure includes first and second gates, first and second source regions, a shared drain region, and an isolation region. The first gate has a first portion extending along a first direction and a second portion extending along a second direction. The second gate has a first portion extending along the first direction and a second portion extending along the second direction. The shared drain region extends from the first portion of the first gate to the first portion of the second gate. The first source region is spaced apart from the shared drain region by the first gate. The second source region is spaced apart from the shared drain region by the second gate. The isolation region is between the first portion of the first gate and the first portion of the second gate, and resembles a quadrilateral pattern bordering the shared drain region.
