Model 8300A Technical Notes

  • Wafer surface temperature is measured at 9-points over whole silicon wafer.
  • Thermal uniformity CV (sigma/mean) is better than 0.63 % over whole wafer.
  • Temperature fluctuation is slow over > 10 min and smaller than 0.5 % of Set Value (SV) temperature.
  • The controller has Auto-Tuning (AT) function of PID (Proportional/Integral/Differential) control.
  • One may need AT after the initial installation and/or different environment, for the more stable and tight control.
  • Each hot plate has factory setting for PID control, which is good in most cases and a starting point for AT in case.
  • This model is for the fixed temperature operation.
