Abstract
Aspects of the present disclosure include a test structure that includes two or more devices. Each device includes a wire disposed within a dielectric and a first via disposed over the wire and in electrical contact with the wire. Each device includes a test pad electrically connected to the first via and a polysilicon resistor electrically connected to the wire. Each of the polysilicon resistors of the two or more devices are electrically tied together. A method for forming the interconnect structure to be used for testing is also provided.
