Abstract
An integrated static random access memory device includes four transistors and two resistors defining a memory cell. The four transistors are in a semiconductor substrate and are mutually interconnected by a local interconnect layer. The local interconnect layer is under a first metal level and a portion of the local interconnect layer defines above the substrate a base metal level. The two resistors extend in contact with a portion of the local interconnect layer between the base metal level and the first metal level.
