Abstract
A semiconductor component (10) includes a substrate (11), doped regions (15, 20) in the substrate (11), interconnect layers (23, 26, 29) coupled to one of the doped layers, and dielectric layers (21, 24, 27) between the interconnect layers (23, 26, 29) wherein a portion (48) of the top interconnect layer (29) overlies portions (47, 42, 43) of the underlying interconnect layers (23, 26) and wherein a portion (47) of the middle interconnect layer (26) does not overlie the portions (42, 43) of the bottom interconnect layer (23) and also does not overlie portions (32, 33) of one of the doped regions (20).
