Cross-Coupled Transistor Circuit Defined Having Diffusion Regions of Common Node on Opposing Sides of Same Gate Electrode Track with At Least Two Non-Inner Positioned Gate Contacts

摘要

A first gate level feature forms gate electrodes of a first transistor of a first transistor type and a first transistor of a second transistor type. A second gate level feature forms a gate electrode of a second transistor of the first transistor type. A third gate level feature forms a gate electrode of a second transistor of the second transistor type. The gate electrodes of the second transistors of the first and second transistor types are positioned on opposite sides of a gate electrode track along which the gate electrodes of the first transistors of the first and second transistor types are positioned. The gate electrodes of the second transistors of the first and second transistor types are electrically connected to each other through an electrical connection that includes two conductive contacting structures at a location not over an inner non-diffusion region.
