Abstract

See full text

A semiconductor device includes: an active area in a transistor layer; contact-source/drain (CSD) conductors in the transistor layer; gate conductors in the transistor layer, and interleaved with the CSD conductors; VG structures in the transistor layer, and over the active area; and a first gate-signal-carrying (GSC) conductor in an M_1st layer that is over the transistor layer, and that is over the active area; and wherein long axes correspondingly of the active area and the first GSC conductor extend substantially in a first direction; and long axes correspondingly of the CSD conductors and the gate conductors extend substantially in a second direction, the second direction being substantially perpendicular to the first direction.
