Abstract
Systems and methods for die crack detection are disclosed. In one exemplary embodiment, a die includes a first conductive segment, an intermediate conductive segment, and a second conductive segment. The crack detection ring substantially surrounds the die according to a serpentine path having a plurality of legs, wherein each leg intersects the first conductive segment at a first intersection, an intermediate conductive segment at an intermediate intersection and a second conductive segment at a second intersection, wherein the intermediate intersection is horizontally offset from at least the first intersection and the second intersection.
