Abstract
In accordance with an embodiment, a semiconductor device includes an SRAM cell on a substrate. The SRAM cell includes: first and second load transistors each having an n-type source region and a p-type drain region, first and second driver transistors each having a p-type source region and an n-type drain region, and first and second transfer transistors each having an n-type source region and a n-type drain region. The n-type source regions of the first and second load transistors, the n-type drain regions of the first and second driver transistors, and the n-type source regions and the n-type drain regions of the first and second transfer transistors are located in a region other than a region present between any two of the p-type drain regions of the first and second load transistors and the p-type source regions of the first and second driver transistors.
