Abstract
A test circuit, including a vertical NPN, a lateral PNP and a vertical PNP transistor plus a diffused resistor and a thin film resistor, is formed by altogether simultaneous steps with corresponding components of each principal integrated circuit. Four dedicated test pads in each integrated circuit lead to all bases, collectors, emitters and resistor extremities so as to permit substantially unshunted measurements of all basic transistor and resistor electrical parameters.
