CREATING A STRESS RECIPE 9
Number of Stress Points 9
Ignore this number. This number was used with the Least Square Fit calculation
procedure. The calculations related to this procedure are described in the introduction
to this chapter. This number belongs to legacy software and has no effect on any
calculation.
Scan Start Position 9
This is the start position on the wafer X-, Y-coordinates. If the proper procedure was
used for wafer placement on the stress locator, this setting ensures that the pre- and
post-processing scans are performed at the same location on the wafer.
NOTE: The recipe used to collect the data must exist in the
stress recipe catalog. If it has been deleted, then the stress
cannot be calculated.
NOTE: If the wafer needs to be rotated, enter the XY View
screen, rotate the wafer, exit the XY View screen, then
enter new coordinates. If the system has a handler, it is
best to use the pre-aligner to load the wafer at the correct
angle.
