Abstract

PURPOSE:To check defects occurring especially during wiring in a manufacturing process by a method wherein some wirings not related to logical circuits already in existence are provided by exploiting hitherto unused input/output terminals and regions not loaded with wirings. CONSTITUTION:Simple wirings are provided by exploiting input/output terminals 1 and wiring-capable regions that are not in service in a master slice type LSI device. Such simple wirings are to be ensured not to affect service circuits. For example, such wirings 2, 3 as indicated by broken lines are provided, to be used for the purpose of checking the serving wirings in the manufacturing process. Such checking includes those for detecting open or short circuits of the like. Defects not involving functional checks out of the defects that a master slice type LSI device may experience may be isolated by a simple continuity test. Accordingly, some complicated functional checks may be replaced with simplified checks in an LSI device of this design, which reduced the steps necessary for the isolation of defective master slice type LSI devices.

2. Description of the Related Art As semiconductor integrated circuit devices (hereinafter referred to as LSIs) become more highly integrated, densely packed, and large-scale, it is becoming increasingly important to efficiently configure LSIs. Furthermore, as the functions of manufactured LSIs become more complex, it is becoming increasingly difficult to check the functions when determining defective products. Traditionally, master slice type medium conductor integrated circuit devices (hereinafter referred to as master slice type LSI) have areas that are not used due to their nature, but these areas are not fully utilized and are often used when checking for defective products. Similar to LSI, complicated (geometrical) checks were not reliable, and there was a problem in that it took a considerable amount of time to check for defective products.
