Device reads wafer ID marks

Oct. 27, 2005
Iris P700 wafer reader is designed for reading ID marks on semiconductor wafers. It incorporates custom LED-based illumination and optics, as well as a high-resolution image sensor, in a compact remote head connected to a small-footprint processor unit based on the Intel Celeron. The processor unit runs the Matrox Imaging Library character-recognition and code-reading software, which together recognize SEMI standard alphanumeric, bar-, and matrix-code wafer ID marks.

The processor unit runs the Matrox Imaging Library character-recognition and code-reading software, which together recognize SEMI standard alphanumeric, bar-, and matrix-code wafer ID marks. Both software tools are robust to the degraded ID marks encountered in wafer manufacturing. Iris P700 wafer reader comes preinstalled with Windows CE .NET real-time operating system.
