Static random access memory having structure of first-, second- and third- level conductive films

摘要

A resistance element having a reduced occupied area and a high resistance which may be employed as a load resistor used in, for example, a static memory device. A high-resistance area is formed using a relatively thin film, while an interconnection area is formed using a relatively thick film, and these films are provided in such a manner that the thin film is in contact with the upper side of the thick film (the relatively thick film is a first-level film, and the relatively thin film is a second-level film).
