    Abstract: The present invention is directed to an integrated circuit module device. The device includes a first semiconductor chip having a first circuit layer and at least one first interconnection element disposed on a first chip surface. The at least one first interconnection element is electrically coupled to the first circuit layer. A second semiconductor chip includes a second circuit layer and at least one second interconnection element disposed on a second chip surface. The at least one second interconnection element is electrically coupled to the second circuit layer. The at least one first interconnection element is connected to the at least one second interconnection element to establish electrical continuity between the first circuit layer and the second circuit layer. The first surface is adjoined to the second surface. At least one ring delay circuit includes a first ring delay path partially disposed on the first circuit layer and a second ring delay path partially disposed on the second circuit layer. The first ring delay path and the second ring delay path form a signal path having a predetermined measurement signature.

    Abstract: A method of making a through wafer via. The method includes: forming a trench in a semiconductor substrate, the trench open to a top surface of the substrate; forming a polysilicon layer on sidewalls and a bottom of the trench; oxidizing the polysilicon layer to convert the polysilicon layer to a silicon oxide layer on the sidewalls and bottom of the trench, the silicon oxide layer not filling the trench; filling remaining space in the trench with an electrical conductor; and thinning the substrate from a bottom surface of the substrate and removing the silicon oxide layer from the bottom of the trench. The method may further include forming a metal layer on the silicon oxide layer before filling the trench.

    Abstract: A through-wafer via structure and method for forming the same. The through-wafer via structure includes a wafer having an opening and a top wafer surface. The top wafer surface defines a first reference direction perpendicular to the top wafer surface. The through-wafer via structure further includes a through-wafer via in the opening. The through-wafer via has a shape of a rectangular plate. A height of the through-wafer via in the first reference direction essentially equals a thickness of the wafer in the first reference direction. A length of the through-wafer via in a second reference direction is at least ten times greater than a width of the through-wafer via in a third reference direction. The first, second, and third reference directions are perpendicular to each other.
