ABSTRACT:
Circuits under electrode terminals and a nonconductor layer of the electrode terminals in semiconductor devices are prevented from being damaged during a test, such as a burn-in test, on the semiconductor devices formed on a wafer. Alignment patterns provided on the semiconductor wafer have detector electrode terminals and conductor electrode terminals. A detector electrode terminal surrounds a conductor electrode terminal separated by a gap from the detector electrode terminals and a portion of the surrounding detector electrode terminal is open.
