Abstract
Examples pertaining to double-pitch layout techniques in designing a memory circuit layout are described. In a memory circuit, a layout of a first column of M×1 one-bit memory cells of an array of memory cells and a layout of a second column of M×1 one-bit memory cells of the array of memory cells are mirrored in horizontal and vertical axes such that a first group of input/output (I/O) pins, which correspond to the first column of M×1 one-bit memory cells, are on a first side of a layout of the array and the second group of I/O pins, which correspond to the second column of M×1 one-bit memory cells, are on a second side opposite the first side of the layout of the array.
