Assignee: TAIWAN SEMICONDUCTOR MANUFACTURING COMPANY LTD.
Field: Semiconductors (Electrical engineering)
Classification: CPC H  B | IPC H

Claim 9:
10. A semiconductor device, comprising:
a plurality of cell structures, wherein each of the plurality of cell structures comprises:
a gate structure including a gate pad and a gate contact on the gate pad,
a first source region disposed below the gate pad, wherein the first source region comprises a first source pad and a first source contact below the first source pad;
a first drain region disposed on the gate pad, wherein the first drain region comprises a first drain pad and a first drain contact on the first drain pad;
a second source region disposed below the gate pad, wherein the second source region comprises a second source pad and a second source contact below the second source pad; and
a second drain region disposed on the gate pad, wherein the second drain region comprises a second drain pad and a second drain contact on the second drain pad; and

at least one connection structure each of which is disposed between two adjacent cell structures of the plurality of cell structures,
wherein all of the first source contacts of the plurality of cell structures are electrically connected to a first power supply through a first metal line disposed at a back side of the semiconductor device, and
wherein all of the second source contacts of the plurality of cell structures are electrically connected to a second power supply through a second metal line disposed at the back side of the semiconductor device.
