  • A detailed description is given in the following embodiments with reference to the accompanying drawings.
  • BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
  • The present invention can be more fully understood by reading the subsequent detailed description and examples with references made to the accompanying drawings, wherein:
  • FIG. 1 is a schematic view of an embodiment of a dispatch integration system based on semiconductor manufacturing; and
  • FIG. 2 is a schematic view of an embodiment of a dispatch integration method based on semiconductor manufacturing.
  • DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
  • Several exemplary embodiments of the invention are described with reference to FIGS. 1 through 2 and attachments 1 through 17, which generally relate to real-time dispatching. It is to be understood that the following disclosure provides many different embodiments as examples, for implementing different features of the invention. Specific examples of components and arrangements are described below to simplify the present disclosure. These are, of course, merely examples and are not intended to be limiting. In addition, the present disclosure may repeat reference numerals and/or letters in the various examples. This repetition is for the purpose of simplicity and clarity and does not in itself dictate a relationship between the various embodiments and/or configurations discussed.
  • The invention discloses a dispatch integration system and method based on semiconductor manufacturing, applying principal component analysis and linear regression weight to accurately manage tool states and generate dispatch orders according to dispatch indexes, thus promoting production efficiency and yield rate.
  • FIG. 1 is a schematic view of an embodiment of a dispatch integration system based on semiconductor manufacturing.
  • Dispatch integration system 100 of an embodiment of the invention comprises a plurality of tools 110, a tool control system (TCS) 120, a manufacturing execution system (MES) 130, and a real-time dispatch system 140. Tools 110 send idle messages, when idle, through TCS 120 to MES 130. MES 130 receives and forwards the idle messages to real-time dispatch system 140. Next, real-time dispatch system 140 receives idle messages and sorts tool parameters (such as temperatures, pressures, gas flow rate, chemical material consistency, and the like) relating to tool efficiency based on a currently executed process using a principal component analysis method, and defines factor weights corresponding to each tool parameter according to sorting results to accurately manage tool states.
  • Tool parameters comprises angles (AVG.APCAngle), pressures (AVG.APCAngle), gas (RNG.Gas1TiCl4), temperatures (SLP.ShowerHeadPower), and so on, as shown in the first field of the table shown in Attachment 1. Each tool parameter corresponds to multiple factor weights. Six factor weights are described in this embodiment as examples but are not intended to be limitative. When MES 130, for example, is going to execute process A, the table shown in Attachment 1 is generated, in which a tool parameter comprising larger values of corresponding six factor weights significantly affects process A. Values of the six factor weights corresponding to each tool parameter are changed when MES is going to execute process B. Additionally, the table shown in Attachment 1 only displays values of factor weights corresponding to each tool parameter while values of each tool parameter are also changed following different executed processes to react process states at the time.
  • Next, real-time dispatch system 140 calculates tool weights of each tool according to a “tool parameters-factor weights” table using a linear regression weight formula, represented as:
  • EQP? ax1? bx 2? cx3? . . . ? sxn−1? txn, where EQP represents a tool, x1, x2, . . . , xn represent tool parameters corresponding to the tool, and a, b, . . . , t represent factor weights corresponding to the tool parameters x1˜xn. As described, each tool parameter corresponds to six factor weights respectively and a maximum one is referred to when weight calculation is implemented. A tool parameter is considered if values of all factor weights corresponding thereto are small. Next, a desired tool for dispatching is determined according to the calculated tool weights. A tool, for example, comprising tool weights larger than a threshold is assigned. Alternatively, a tool for dispatching is determined when tool weights are ordered in front of a predetermined number. Tools, for example, comprising tool weights ordered in front of 5 are determined for dispatch.
  • FIG. 2 is a schematic view of an embodiment of a dispatch integration method based on semiconductor manufacturing. The method is applied to a dispatch integration system comprising a plurality of tools, a tool control system, a manufacturing execution system (MES), and a real-time dispatch system.
  • Idle messages are sent to a real-time dispatch system through a tool control system and a manufacturing execution system when the tools are idle (step S1). The real-time dispatch system sorts tool parameters (such as temperatures, pressures, gas flow rate, chemical material consistency, and the like) relating to tool efficiency based on a currently executed process using a principal component analysis method (step S2), defines factor weights corresponding to each tool parameter according to sorting results (step S3). A tool parameter comprising larger values of corresponding factor weights significantly affects a currently executed process. Additionally, values of each tool parameter are changed following different executed processes to react process states at the time.
  • Next, the real-time dispatch system calculates tool weights of each tool according to the defined tool parameters and corresponding factor weights using a linear regression weight formula (step S4), represented as:
  • EQP? ax1? bx2? cx3? . . . ? sxn−1? txn, where EQP represents a tool, x1, x2. . . , xn represent tool parameters corresponding to the tool, and a, b, . . . , t represent factor weights corresponding to the tool parameters x1˜xn. The real-time dispatch system determines a desired tool for dispatching according to the calculated tool weights (step S5). As described, each tool parameter corresponds to six factor weights respectively and a maximum one is referred to when weight calculation is implemented. A tool parameter is considered if values of all factor weights corresponding thereto are small. Next, a desired tool is determined for dispatch according to the calculated tool weights. A tool, for example, comprising tool weights larger than a threshold is assigned. Alternatively, a tool for dispatch is determined when tool weights are ordered in front of a predetermined number. Tools, for example, comprising tool weights ordered in front of 5 are determined for dispatch.
  • An example of a dispatch integration method of the invention is illustrated in the following.
  • Referring to FIG. 1, as described, the real-time dispatch system sorts tool parameters relating to tool efficiency based on a currently executed process using a principal component analysis method and defines factor weights corresponding to each tool parameter according to sorting results. Tool parameters are shown in the first field of the table shown in Attachment 1 and each corresponds to six factor weights (Factor 1˜Factor 6) respectively. The real-time dispatch system must select tool parameters significantly affecting the currently executed process according to factor weights to calculate tool weights of each tool using a linear regression weight formula. As shown in Attachment 1, weights recorded in a field marked by yellow significantly affect a currently executed process, such that tool parameters corresponding to those factor weights are selected to be substituted for the linear regression weight formula to obtain weights of a tool.
  • Attachments 2˜18 show relations between factor weights or tool parameters. Attachments 2˜5 show relations between a first factor weight corresponding to a tool parameter and a second factor weight to a fifth factor weight corresponding to the tool parameter. Attachments 6˜8 show relations between a second factor weight corresponding to a tool parameter and a third factor weight to a fifth factor weight corresponding to the tool parameter. Attachment 9 shows relations between a third factor weight and a fourth factor weight corresponding to the tool parameter. Attachment 10 shows relations between three different tool parameters, in which the X axis represents the ARA.RFTunePosition parameter, the Y axis represents the ARA.RFVdc parameter, and the Z axis represents the ARA.RFVpp parameter. Attachment 11 shows relations between the ARA.RFTunePosition parameter, the ARA.RFVdc parameter, and the ARA.RFVpp parameter when the manufacturing state for a wafer lot is good (State: Goodlot) or bad (State: NGlot).
  • Attachment 12 shows relations between three different tool parameters, in which the X axis represents the ARA.RFTunePosition parameter, the Y axis represents the ARA.RFVdc parameter, and the Z axis represents the ARA.ShowerHeadTemp parameter. Attachment 13 shows relations between the ARA.RFTunePosition parameter, the ARA.RFVdc parameter, and the ARA.ShowerHeadTemp parameter when the manufacturing state for a wafer lot is good (State: Goodlot) or bad (State: NGlot).
  • Attachment 14 shows relations between three different tool parameters, in which the X axis represents the ARA.RFVdc parameter, the Y axis represents the ARA.RFVpp parameter, and the Z axis represents the ARA.ShowerHeadTemp parameter. Attachment 15 shows relations between the ARA.RFVdc parameter, the ARA.RFVpp parameter, and the ARA—ShowerHeadTemp parameter when the manufacturing state for a wafer lot is good (State: Goodlot) or bad (State: NGlot).
  • Attachment 16 shows relations between three different tool parameters, in which the X axis represents the ARA.RFTunePosition parameter, the Y axis represents the ARA.RFVpp parameter, and the Z axis represents the ARA.ShowerHeadTemp parameter. Attachment 17 shows relations between the ARA.RFTunePosition parameter, the ARA.RFVpp parameter, and the ARAShowerHeadTemp parameter when the manufacturing state for a wafer lot is good (State: Goodlot) or bad (State: NGlot).
  • As described, each tool weight can be accurately calculated according to the relations between tool parameters and corresponding factor weights to more accurately manage tool states.
  • A dispatch integration method based on semiconductor manufacturing of the invention applies a principal component analysis method to sort tool parameters and group significant factors and defines factor weights to accurately manage tool states. Further, linear regression weight calculation is implemented to quantify tool awaiting states and tool efficiency factors and other factors as optimum dispatching indexes to generate dispatching orders. Additionally, the dispatch integration of the invention can be programmed as a recognition engine to be integrated with an automated dispatch system.
  • While the invention has been described by way of example and in terms of the preferred embodiments, it is to be understood that the invention is not limited to the disclosed embodiments. To the contrary, it is intended to cover various modifications and similar arrangements (as would be apparent to those skilled in the art). Therefore, the scope of the appended claims should be accorded the broadest interpretation so as to encompass all such modifications and similar arrangements.
