  • Patent number: 9327252
    Abstract: Apparatus and system for mixing gas comprising a first valve coupled to a first conduit controlling flow of a first gas, a second valve coupled to a second conduit controlling flow of a second gas, a controller controlling the valves, a base block with a first gas input coupled to the first conduit, a second gas input coupled to the second conduit and an output opening, a mixing chamber formed within the base block, wherein the mixing chamber is coupled to the first gas input and the second gas input to receive input gases, an inner block disposed within the mixing chamber, the inner block including a body with an inner volume and one or more perimeter holes formed through the body coupling the mixing chamber to the inner volume of the inner block; and a gas outlet configured to flow gas through the output opening of the base block.

  • Patent number: 8707754
    Abstract: Methods and apparatus for calibrating a plurality of gas flows in a substrate processing system are provided herein. In some embodiments, a substrate processing system may include a cluster tool comprising a first process chamber and a second process chamber coupled to a central vacuum transfer chamber; a first flow controller to provide a process gas to the first process chamber; a second flow controller to provide the process gas to the second process chamber; a mass flow verifier to verify a flow rate from each of the first and second flow controllers; a first conduit to selectively couple the first flow controller to the mass flow verifier; and a second conduit to selectively couple the second flow controller to the mass flow verifier.
