Abstract

Multilayer substrates, are fabricated with the incorporation therein of non-destructive test structures utilized to provide visual and electrical test data to facilitate the ascertainment and assessment of potential electrical interface failures. Furthermore, there are provided embedded structures in multilayer substrates, such as are employed in chip carrier packaging, so as to facilitate electrical testing for via to via alignment and interface layer alignment, and to enable the testing of conductive interface electrical integrity of multilayer electrical devices.
