Abstract
A semiconductor apparatus includes a TSV formed to be electrically connected with another chip and a TSV test unit configured to check a capacitance component of the TSV to generate a TSV abnormality signal.
Claims34
A stacked semiconductor apparatus comprising:
- a first chip having a first TSV connected between a first node and a second node;
- a second chip having a second TSV connected between a third node and a fourth node;
- and
- a connection unit configured to electrically connect the second node and the third node with each other,
- wherein the first chip includes a first TSV test unit configured to check a capacitance value of the first TSV and generate a first single test result in a single TSV test mode, and supply a power supply voltage to the first node in a stacked TSV test mode, and
- wherein the second chip includes a second TSV test unit configured to check a capacitance value of the second TSV and is generate a second single test result in the single TSV test mode, and electrically connect the third node and a fifth node with each other in the stacked TSV test mode.
