Abstract:
1. An integrated circuit structure comprising: a semiconductor substrate comprising a first region and a second region; an insulation region in the second region of the semiconductor substrate; an inter-layer dielectric (ILD) over the insulation region; a transistor in the first region, the transistor comprising a gate dielectric, and a gate electrode over the gate dielectric, wherein the gate electrode has a first pitch from a neighboring gate electrode; a first conductive line and a second conductive line over the insulation region, wherein the first conductive line and the second conductive line are substantially parallel to each other and extending in a first direction, and wherein the first conductive line and the second conductive line have a second pitch substantially equal to the first pitch; and a first metal line and a second metal line in a metal layer over the ILD and extending in the first direction, wherein the first metal line and the second metal line form two capacitor electrodes of a capacitor.
