  • System and method for measuring tool performance
    Patent number: 7778798
    Abstract: A system and method for measuring tool performance of a multi-path cluster semiconductor fabrication tool. The system comprises a status data unit for receiving up or down status data for each element of the tool for respective operational time periods; a performance value assignment unit for assigning a performance value to the tool for each time period based on the status data of the elements during said each time period; and an operational uptime unit for determining an operational uptime for a period covering the time periods of the tool based on multiplying the respective time periods with the corresponding assigned performance values.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: October 12, 2006
    Date of Patent: August 17, 2010
    Assignee: Systems on Silicon Manufacturing Co. Pte. Ltd.
