Integrated circuit structures having front side signal lines and backside power delivery are described. In an example, an integrated circuit structure includes a plurality of gate lines extending over a plurality of semiconductor nanowire stack or fin channel structures within a cell boundary. A plurality of trench contacts is extending over a plurality of source or drain structures within the cell boundary, individual ones of the plurality of trench contacts alternating with individual ones of the plurality of gate lines. A first signal line, a second signal line, a third signal line, and a fourth signal line are over the plurality of gate lines and the plurality of trench contacts within the cell boundary. A backside power delivery line is coupled to one of the plurality of trench contacts within the cell boundary. |
