Semiconductor Yield Management System And Method

US Patent:
6470229, Oct 22, 2002
Filed:
Dec 8, 1999
Appl. No.:
09/458185
Inventors:
Weidong Wang - Union City CA
Jonathan B. Buckheit - Foster City CA
David W. Budd - San Jose CA
Assignee:
Yield Dynamics, Inc. - Santa Clara CA
International Classification:
G06F 1900
US Classification:
700121, 700108, 700 31
Abstract:
A system and method for yield management is disclosed wherein a data set containing one or more prediction variable values and one or more response values is input into the system. The system can pre-process the input data set to remove prediction variables with missing values and data sets with missing values. The pre-processed data can then be used to generate a model that may be a decision tree. The system can accept user input to modify the generated model. Once the model is complete, one or more statistical analysis tools can be used to analyze the data and generate a list of the key yield factors for the particular data set.
