Abstract

A semiconductor device which includes a passivation structure formed with a conductive strip of resistive material that crosses itself once around the active region of the device to form a first closed loop, a continuous strip that loops around the first closed loop without crossing itself which crosses itself a second time to form a second closed loop.
