Patent ID: 6864519

Claim:
A complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor static random access memory cell comprising: a pair of P-channel multiple-gate field-effect transistors (P-MGFETs), each of said P-MGFETs having a source connected to a common voltage potential and a gate connected to a drain of the other P-MGFET; a first pair of N-channel multiple-gate field-effect transistors (N-MGFETs), each of said N-MGFETs having a drain connected to the drain of a respective P-MGFET of the pair of P-MGFETs, a source connected to ground, and a gate connected to the drain of an opposite P-MGFET of the pair of P-MGFETs; a second pair of N-MGFETs having a drain respectively connected to a connection linking a respective drain of the N-MGFET of the first pair of N-MGFETs to the drain of the P-MGFET of the pair of P-MGFETs; a pair of complementary bit lines, each of said plurality of bit lines respectively connected to a source of an N-MGFET of the second pair of N-MGFETS; and a word line connected to gates of an N-MGFETs of said second pair of N-MGFETs.
