Abstract :
Describes a simplified twin-tub process for high density SRAM application. A self-aligned channel-stop and punch-through implant along with poly-buffered LOCOS process improve the isolation and minimize the narrow width effect on the access transistors in the array. An additional deep boron implant through field oxide further reduces the spacing between the pull down drivers
