Embodiment Construction

[0044] It should be understood that the following disclosure provides many different embodiments, or examples, for implementing various features of the invention. Specific examples of components and configurations are described below to simplify the present disclosure. Of course, these are merely examples and not intended to be limiting. Furthermore, the following description of a first component being formed over a second component may include embodiments where the first and second components are formed in direct contact, and may also include that additional components may be formed sandwiched between the first and second components. An embodiment such that the first and second parts are not in direct contact. Various features are arbitrarily drawn in different scales for simplicity and clarity.

Abstract

De-embedding apparatus and methods of de-embedding are disclosed. A de-embedding apparatus includes a test structure including a device-under-test (DUT) embedded in the test structure, and a plurality of dummy test structures including an open dummy structure, a distributed open dummy structure, and a short dummy structure. The distributed open dummy structure may include a first signal transmission line coupled to a left signal test pad and a second signal transmission line coupled to a right signal test pad, the first and second signal transmission lines having a smaller total length than a total length of signal transmission lines of the open dummy structure, and intrinsic transmission characteristics of the DUT can be derived from transmission parameters of the dummy test structures and the test structure

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates generally to semiconductor devices, and more particularly, to methods and apparatus for de-embedding. Background technique [0002] An integrated circuit (IC) formed on a semiconductor substrate includes a plurality of active and passive devices such as resistors, inductors, capacitors, transistors, amplifiers, and the like. Such components are manufactured to design specifications that define the desired physical / electrical properties (eg, resistance, inductance, capacitance, gain, etc.) that the component will exhibit. While it is desirable to verify that each component manufactured complies with its characteristic design specifications, typically the corresponding component cannot be easily inspected after integration into a circuit. Therefore, "independent" replicas of each IC component are fabricated on a wafer, fabricated using the same process and utilizing the same physical / electrical characteristics as the IC co...
