In the manufacture of a multi-lay integrated circuit, a reference target is etched into a test wafer along with circuit features of a reference layer. As successive dependent layers are printed, successive dependent targets overlaying the same reference target are formed in photoresist. As each successive dependent target is printed, the degree to which it is registered with the reference target is used to determine the overlay error. After determination of overlay error for a layer, the layer's dependent target is removed, allowing the reference target to be matched with the dependent target of another layer.
