An integrated circuit arrangement and method of fabricating the integrated circuit arrangement is described. The integrated circuit arrangement contains an insulating region and a sequence of regions which forms a capacitor. The sequence contains a near electrode region near the insulating region, a dielectric region, and a remote electrode region remote from the insulating region. The insulating region is part of an insulating layer arranged in a plane. The capacitor and an active component are arranged on the same side of the insulating layer and form a memory cell. The near electrode region and an active region of the component are arranged in a plane which lies parallel to the plane in which the insulating layer is arranged. A processor is also contained in the integrated circuit arrangement.
