ABSTRACT:
A digital silicon-on-insulator (SOI) H-transistor layout is disclosed for gate arrays. In the preferred embodiment, the invention basically comprises at least two H-transistors; the ends of each H-transistor terminate in two distinct regions of field oxide; the two sides of the H-transistor abut a body contact region; and each body contact region abuts a strip of field oxide, which has an underlying trench. This pattern is repeated vertically and horizontally, generating a structure compatible for gate array architecture. In a gate array, all transistors in a column are of the same type, such as N type or P type. Within a row, however, the transistors types could alternate.
