A temperature control method for semiconductor process equipment with feed-forward compensation

Abstract

Disclosed is a temperature control method of semiconductor technology equipment with feedforward compensation. The semiconductor technology equipment comprises temperature control devices in one or more temperature control areas. The method comprises the steps that according to the preset temperature control condition of a semiconductor technology, feedforward compensation reference signal tracks of the temperature control devices are constructed, the whole temperature control temperature rise period is divided into a high-speed temperature rise period and a standard temperature rise period, the temperature rise process from initial temperature t to first intermediate temperature t' is completed in the high-speed temperature rise period, and the temperature rise process from the first intermediate temperature t' to target temperature T is completed in the standard temperature rise period; reference signal tracks in the standard temperature rise period meet the preset temperature control condition, and the temperature rise speed of the high-speed temperature rise period is higher than that of the standard temperature rise period; control operation of the temperature control system is carried out based on the obtained feedforward compensation reference signal tracks. The influence of the time lag of the temperature control system can be weakened, the temperature rise effect of a furnace can be improved, and the productivity of the semiconductor technology equipment can be improved.
