Abstract

A memory cell includes a first, second, third, and fourth transistor, a first and a second inverter, and a first and second word line. The first inverter is coupled to the first and third transistor. The second inverter is coupled to the first inverter and the first and third transistor. The first word line is configured to supply a first word line signal, is on a first metal layer above a front-side of a substrate, and is coupled to the first and third transistor. The second word line is configured to supply a second word line signal, and is on a second metal layer below a back-side of the substrate opposite from the front-side of the substrate, and is coupled to the second and fourth transistor. At least the first, second, third or fourth transistor are on the front-side of the substrate.
