Abstract
We present a novel testing scheme for TSVs in a 3D IC by performing on-chip TSV monitoring before bonding, using a sense amplification technique that is commonly seen on a DRAM. By virtue of the inherent capacitive characteristics, we can detect the faulty TSVs with little area overhead for the circuit under test.
