Abstract
Description
(1) Technical field
[0001] The present invention relates to a memory element, in particular to a masked read-only memory for storing multi-bit information. (2) Background technology
[0002] There are many known types of ROMs in use today; one such type is the flat ROM. In order to meet the requirement of better memory cell efficiency, the pitch and bank height of memory cells become important design considerations. When the design size of the memory cell gradually shrinks, the size of the contact window and the metal pitch also become one of the limiting factors; It will make it difficult to reduce the layout area.
[0003] Generally speaking, ROM is used to store data information in a permanent, non-volatile memory form. Semiconductor read-only memory is mostly used in digital electronic devices, such as computers, business machines and game machines, etc., and data information can be permanently stored in this device. Such permanent data information includes micro-pro...
