Abstract

The semiconductor IC device includes a through-connection to a conductive device. This connection may be located within a double diffusion break (DDB) region separating the active region. This connection may include a false S / D region between the front contacts and back contacts. The semiconductor IC device may further include a first and / or second diffusion break isolation rail. This connection may exist between the first and second diffusion break isolation rails. The location of the connection within the DDB region can, as a result, increase the integration density of the semiconductor IC device. Furthermore, this connection can reduce routing complexity and resistance through the semiconductor IC device, thereby improving the performance of the semiconductor IC device. In addition, this connection can utilize structural instances (e.g., front contacts, back contacts, false S / D region, or similar) that mirror those used by microdevices (e.g., transistors or similar) within the active region, thereby reducing manufacturing complexity.
