Abstract
A test structure is presented that combines two types of full Kelvin matched resistor pairs in a single 12 pad process control compatible test line. Based on these structures, matching results of SiCr resistors in a BiCMOS RF technology are discussed, demonstrating some of the frequently encountered challenges of interpreting subtle parametric mismatch fluctuation effects.
