Abstract
An embedded memory device includes a plurality of first bit cells configured to store data and connected between a first bitline and a first complementary bitline, and at least one first cropping cell connected between the first bitline and the first complementary bitline. The at least one first cropping cell electrically connects a global bitline to the first bitline and electrically connects a complementary global bitline to the first complementary bitline in response to a first crop wordline signal. The global bitline and the complementary global bitline are implemented as an upper metal member, and the first bitline and the first complementary bitline are implemented as a lower metal member disposed below the upper metal member.
