发明名称 Intra die variation monitor using through-silicon via
摘要 An apparatus comprising connecting IDVMON monitors with through silicon vias (TSV) to allow the monitors to be connected to probe pads located on the backside of the wafer. Because the backside of the wafer have significantly more space than the front side, the probe pads for IDVMON can be accommodated without sacrificing the silicon area.

主权项 1. An apparatus comprising: at least two intra die variation monitors (IDVMONs); at least two through silicon vias (TSVs), wherein each of the at least two IDVMONs are embedded in each of the at least two TSVs; and at least two probe pads located on a backside of a wafer, wherein the at least two TSVs connect the at least two IDVMONs to the at least two probe pads.
