Title:
OPTIMIZATION OF DIE PLACEMENT ON WAFERS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2003096234
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A method of optimizing production of semiconductor devices on a wafer comprises steps of characterizing at least one effect of at least one manufacturing component on at least one optimization criterion (21); inputting opptimization data (23), performing optimization (22, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28) to determine a layout of semiconductor devices on the wafer that optimizes performance according to the user optimization data (23).
