What it is

General reference — not yet source-verified

Inspection systems in semiconductor manufacturing are used to examine wafers and related surfaces for defects, pattern issues, contamination, and process excursions. Metrology and inspection tools are used to monitor process quality and to provide data that supports yield learning and process control.

How it works

General reference — not yet source-verified

Inspection systems generally scan or image wafer surfaces and compare observed features against expected pattern or surface conditions. Inspection systems generally use optics, motion, sensing, and software analysis to detect defects or abnormalities and to classify inspection results for engineering review.

Where it fits in the process flow

General reference — not yet source-verified

Wafer inspection tools are used at multiple points through semiconductor manufacturing wherever patterned or unpatterned surfaces need verification. Inspection data commonly feeds process monitoring, excursion response, and disposition decisions between fabrication steps.

Applications

The NSX 100 operates on 50/60 Hz power and 200-240 Vac electrical service.[1][2]
