Monitoring resistor element and measuring method of relative preciseness of resistor elements

A monitoring resistor element includes a plurality of resistors ( 1, 2 ) formed on an integrated circuit chip through the same fabrication steps as those used to form a practical circuit are connected to power source pads ( 3, 4, 5, 6 ), which are terminal pads formed on the integrated circuit chip....

Summary:A monitoring resistor element includes a plurality of resistors ( 1, 2 ) formed on an integrated circuit chip through the same fabrication steps as those used to form a practical circuit are connected to power source pads ( 3, 4, 5, 6 ), which are terminal pads formed on the integrated circuit chip. A method for measuring a relative preciseness of resistors ( 1, 2 ) formed on an integrated circuit chip includes the step of performing the relative preciseness of the resistors by using power source pads ( 3, 4, 5, 6 ), to which the resistors ( 1, 2 ) are connected and which are terminal pads formed on the integrated circuit chip, as measuring pads when the measurement of relative preciseness of the resistors ( 1, 2 ) is performed.
