Abstract

In a stacked load-less static random access memory (SRAM) device in which a pair of transmission transistors is stacked on a pair of driving transistors, the stacked load-less SRAM device includes first and second transistors arranged in first and second active regions separately on a semiconductor substrate and third and fourth transistors arranged on first and second semiconductor layers over the first and second transistors. A first drain region of the first transistor, a third drain region of the third transistor, and a second gate of the second transistor are electrically connected through a first contact node. A second drain region of the second transistor, a fourth drain region of the fourth transistor, and a first gate of the first transistor are electrically connected through a second contact node.
