[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of mixed gas configuration, and in particular to a multi-component mixed gas configuration device and a use method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Mixed gases have high requirements on component content, especially in the field of semiconductor manufacturing. However, they are restricted by factors such as gas properties and gas distribution equipment, which seriously affect production efficiency or product performance indicators.

[0003] At present, the main methods for preparing mixed gas are weighing method, partial pressure method, etc. Weighing gas distribution uses high-precision weighing equipment to obtain higher gas distribution accuracy, but it requires a long time of static mixing, or high-intensity manual mixing, which greatly reduces production efficiency and increases labor intensity.
