Abstract:
A method of adjusting wafer process sequence includes steps of collecting production parameters for a plurality of lots; selecting a plurality of key parameters from the production parameters, wherein the key parameters at least includes a processing sequence; defining a formula to obtain an epsilon value; categorizing the lots into groups according to the epsilon value and the minimum point number by using density-based spatial clustering of application with noise (DBSCAN); and adjusting the processing sequences of the lots in the groups. Thereby, the lots with the same process recipe can be continuously or simultaneously sent into a machine, thereby reducing replacement of process recipes or shortening machine idle time.
