Abstract
An SRAM cell of a semiconductor device includes a load transistor, a driver transistor and an access transistor. First source/drains of the load, driver and access transistors are connected to a node. A power line, a ground line and a bit line are electrically connected to second source/drains of the load transistor, the driver transistor and the access transistor. The power line, the ground line and the bit line are disposed at substantially the same level to extend in a first direction. A word line is electrically connected to a gate of the access transistor to extend in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction. The word line is disposed at a different level from the level of the power line, the ground line and the bit line.
