Abstract
A semiconductor device includes a first test structure including a first portion of a conductive structure and a second portion of the conductive structure located within a first lateral wiring layer of a layer stack of the semiconductor device. The first portion of the conductive structure of the first test structure is electrically connected to the second portion of the conductive structure of the first test structure through a third portion located within a second lateral wiring layer of the layer stack arranged above the first lateral wiring layer. Further, the first portion of the conductive structure of the first test structure is electrically connected to a gate of a test transistor structure, a doping region of the test transistor structure or an electrode of a test capacitor. Additionally, the first portion of the conductive structure of the first test structure is electrically connected to a first test pad of the first test structure.
