Abstract
External connection terminals A to D of an integrated circuit are connected to each terminal of elements to to be measured for a process parameter using interconnections. Among the interconnections, one to connect the base of a bipolar transistor and external connection terminal B for example is provided with a switch . A terminal of a particular element and an external connection terminal are connected by turning on of the switch . Thus, a process parameter of the bipolar transistor is measured using the external terminals to which each terminal of the bipolar transistor is connected.
