An arrayed switch circuitry includes contact units each of which includes a pad, a first row channel provided with a first switching element, a first column channel connected to the first row channel and provided with a second switching element, a connecting channel connecting the pad to the first row channel or the first column channel, a second row channel connected with the pad through a third switching element and a second column channel connected with the pad through a fourth switching element. The first row channels with the same row position are connected to each other, and the second row channels with the same row position are connected to each other. The first column channels with the same column position are connected to each other, and the second column channels with the same column position are connected to each other.

A new class of multiplier cells (analog or digital) is derived from a 1-bit full adder and an AND gate. The 1-bit full adder is derived from first and second majority gates. The multiplier cell can also be implemented with a combination of two majority gates with majority and AND functions integrated in each of them. The two majority gates are coupled. Each of the first and second majority logic gates comprise a capacitor with non-linear polar material. The first and second majority gates receive the two inputs A and B that are to be multiplied. Other inputs received by the first and second majority gates are carry-in input, a sum-in input, and a bias voltage. The bias voltage is a negative voltage, which produces an integrated AND function in conjunction with a majority function. The second majority gate receives additional inputs, which are inverted output of the first majority gate.

An integrated circuit includes first and second active regions, first and second standard cells on the first active region and the second active region, and a filler cell between the first and second standard cells and including first and second insulating isolations. The filler cell has a one-pitch dimension. The first and second insulating isolations are spaced the one-pitch dimension apart from each other. The first insulating isolation of the filler cell is disposed at a first boundary between the first standard cell and the filler cell. The second insulating isolation of the filler cell is disposed at a second boundary between the second standard cell and the filler cell. The first and second insulating isolations separate at least a part of the first active region, and at least a part of the second active region.

Systems, apparatuses, and methods related to dynamic random access memory (DRAM), such as finer grain DRAM, are described. For example, an array of memory cells in a memory device may be partitioned into regions. Each region may include a plurality of banks of memory cells. Each region may be associated with a data channel configured to communicate with a host device. In some examples, each channel of the array may include two or more data pins. The ratio of data pins per channel may be two or four in various examples. Other examples may include eight data pins per channel.
