  • Abstract
    A novel interconnect scheme is presented which reduces the number of pads required by electrical verniers to measure mask misalignment. It makes the use of a shift register no longer necessary to keep the pad count to a reasonable number and the process is only required to support the fabrication of diodes. The vernier can be measured using any test equipment which can test for continuity.
