Abstract
An integrated circuit on a substrate includes a peripheral portion that surrounds an active area and is positioned close to a scribe line providing separation with other integrated circuits realized on a same wafer. The integrated circuit includes at least one conductive structure that extends in the peripheral portion on different planes of metallizations starting from the substrate and forms an integrated antenna. Another conductive structure extends in the peripheral portion on different planes of metallizations and forms a seal ring.
