Abstract

A static RAM has a low resistive contact film disposed in direct contact with a storage node of a memory cell and the gate electrode of a driver transistor in a through-hole, and in direct contact with an end portion of a high-resistance load. An accurate and stable resistance can be obtained for the high-resistance load without raising the contact resistance between the storage node and the gate electrode of the driver transistor.
