SCRUB WINDOW MEASUREMENT CASES<br />

■ Pad Bounded (Die, <strong>Wafer</strong>) all fac<strong>to</strong>rs<br />

■ Unbounded (Metal <strong>Wafer</strong>) card, system<br />

fac<strong>to</strong>rs<br />

Note: <strong>probe</strong> tip <strong>to</strong>e overhang will not be<br />

detected, except against passivation<br />

DERIVED PROCESS FACTOR VALUES<br />

+3xproc_sigma)<br />

■ proc_sigma = sqrt (sum sqrs fac<strong>to</strong>rsig)<br />

Digital Semiconduc<strong>to</strong>r 10/12/97 14


EXAMPLE:<br />

Proc_sig<br />

= +- sqrt(card_sig2 + prbr_sig2 + opr_sig2)<br />

Proc_sig<br />

= +-sqrt<br />

sqrt(4**2 + 2.1**2 + 3.3**2)<br />

Proc_sig<br />

= 5.6 , 3 proc_sigma = 16.8 microns<br />

Gap_mean = 10 microns<br />

Capability = 67 / (67- (2x10) + 16.8) = 1.05<br />

For 80 micron <strong>pad</strong> pitch - 13 micron pass_space<br />
