Claim Text:
1. An article of manufacture, comprising a computer readable storage medium, having stored thereon in a non-transitory manner a computer readable definition of shapes for a lithographic mask set for defining features to be formed on an integrated circuit using the mask set, wherein the features define a static random access memory comprising an array of memory cells, each particular one of the cells comprising: first and second pass-gate transistors each connected in the cell to perform a pass gate function; first and second P-channel pull-up transistors each connected in the cell to perform a pull-up function; and first and second N-channel pull-down transistors, each connected in the cell to perform a pull-down function, each of the transistors having a respective gate electrode and respective first and second current path terminal, wherein the gate electrode of a particular one of the transistors of a first one of the functions does not share a layout track with the gate electrodes of any of the transistors of either of the other two functions.
