Background technology
Semi-conductor silicon chip manufacturing belongs to integrated circuit and supports industry, all the time, all to support industry and strategic new industry as emphasis, and the sheet number of semi-conductor silicon chip statistics, add up to by artificial spot film for a long time, artificial spot film inevitably can produce error in data, and at semicon industry, this produces extremely rigorous field, and sheet miscounts mistake greatly affects image product; Also review and have a negative impact for production data; In addition, artificial spot film also can increase silicon chip surface scratch, increases inspection loss.
Photovoltaic industry is fast-developing in recent years industry, and its emphasis base material-silicon chip of solar cell is because relating to production line circulation etc., and each link all needs to add up to sheet number, and sheet number statistics is the earliest also to adopt artificial spot film to complete.At present also there is the spot film machine based on photovoltaic principals, utilized image processing means to carry out sheet and count statistics.But this series products is more difficult because technology realizes, and the factors such as cost of development height, all have price higher, universal difficulty is large.
Meanwhile, semi-conductor silicon chip belongs to and is circle, and edge curvature is larger, and optical focal length is difficult to adjust, and edge image is compared with difficult collection or effective image pixel is few, and image focusing difficulty or effective image deficiency, cannot realize counting.In addition,, for semi-conductor silicon chip, because conduction type, crystal have different reference surface differences when different to equal-specification, sometimes also need carry out reference surface processing according to client.At present conventional processing is mainly by disk, single reference surface, double reference surface; There are 3 cun, 4 cun, 5 cun, 6 cun, 8 cun, 12 cun according to size; Position and the length of the silicon chip of different size to reference surface has clearly regulation, and consistance is strong.For having the silicon chip of reference surface, photo-electric spot film machine cannot be realized edge image focusing, cannot carry out sheet and count calculating, in addition, in actual production, also can there is the silicon chip of asymmetric chamfering, in this case, silicon chip edge shape is asymmetric, and photo-electric spot film machine cannot be realized spot film more.Therefore so far, also do not have formal photo-electric spot film machine to be applied to semi-conductor silicon chip manufacturing, in production, still adopt Traditional Man spot film.
For silicon chip processing, because product requirement is higher, in general process of manufacture, product all has more consistent thickness and consistent diameter dimension, simultaneously for test silicon wafer resistivity, the thickness of silicon chip first need to be carried out to stepping, be generally 5 microns one grade, ensure that consistency of thickness just can carry out resistivity measurement, so just ensure silicon wafer thickness consistance, simultaneously because silicon chip shape and diameter dimension all have good consistance.
In actual production link, especially OQC link, checking of sheet number is vital, and Traditional Man spot film cannot meet the high request of existing production to product quality, and photo-electric spot film machine has and cannot avoid the born defect in ground in the application of semi-conductor silicon chip manufacturing industry.How to realize conveniently, practical, cheap spot film device and method be the subject matter of puzzlement silicon chip spot film counting.

Principle of the present invention is mainly the inherent characteristic that based single crystal silicon density and weight transform.General silicon chip has the shape of formulation, as disk, square piece, single reference surface, double reference surface etc.Silicon chip can be regarded regular right cylinder as, that is, as long as know silicon wafer thickness, diameter dimension, shape, can transform the quantity that obtains silicon chip by weight.Formula is as follows:
nρv=nρsh=m
N=m/ ρ sh(wherein n is silicon chip sheet number, and ρ is that monocrystalline silicon density s is silicon area, and h is silicon wafer thickness, and m is the weight of weighing.)
Can find out from upper formula, just can weigh and carry out sheet and count conversion as long as silicon chip diameter dimension and thickness have better consistance.
Counting principle of the present invention is as follows:
1, design silicon wafer thickness gear inputting interface, and can calculate single maximum count amount.5 microns one grade of silicon wafer thickness first arranges in the once metering of different-thickness silicon chip and rolls off the production line in software, prevents that the sheet number that test error causes is inaccurate, and while weighing, the weight that rolls off the production line on same shelves thickness silicon chip is less than single silicon chip weight.Suppose certain gear silicon chip (h2-h1=5 and h1<h2) between h1~h2, it is n that the sheet of this specification of single weighing is counted maximum number, and n < h1/ (h2-h1)=h1/5(n is integer).If the single maximum count of 295-300 micron thickness shelves is that 58pcs is each.
2, there is diameter dimension input, specification, area computing function.Can input by diameter dimension, specification select calculate silicon area s, it is m that electronic balance obtains weight.Counting principle m/ ρ sh1 < n < m/ ρ sh2, n < h1/5(n is integer), meet above condition simultaneously and obtain counting n.
3, sheet is counted statistical function, has designed sheet and count statistical function in software, has single counting, stored count, directly function of weighing.If single sheet number exceedes range, show " no to scale " prompting, remind and reduce several pieces numbers of single poidometer, weigh for the first time and be counted as n1, be n2 for the second time, be n3 for the third time.Count sheet and count n=n1+n2+n3.There is Protection Counter Functions simultaneously, can again add up.
Electronic balance of the present invention has AC power input port, can directly connect 220v AC power and use; In addition, electronic balance of the present invention has been equipped with accumulator as off-line power supply, ensures the convenience that in use procedure, device shifts and uses.
Apparatus of the present invention also possess the Presentation Function of weighing, and can, separately as weighing use, increase the diversity of functions of the equipments.
