Abstract

A semiconductor structure is provided. The semiconductor structure includes two circuit regions, two inner seal rings, an outer seal ring, a first redundant region, and an electrical circuit. Each of the inner seal rings surrounding one of the circuit regions. The outer seal ring is disposed around the inner seal rings, and each of the inner seal rings contacts the outer seal ring at different interior corners of the outer seal ring. The first redundant region is located between at least one of the inner seal rings and the outer seal ring. The electrical circuit is formed in the first redundant region and electrically connected to at least one of the circuit regions.
