Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of radio frequency power supply technology, and in particular to a plasma radio frequency power supply. Background Technology

[0002] Radio frequency (RF) power supplies are power sources capable of generating sinusoidal voltages at a fixed frequency within the RF range (approximately 3kHz to 300GHz) with a certain power output. Plasma RF power supplies are devices that provide the necessary RF energy to plasma. RF power supplies are the driving source for plasma industrial equipment, primarily used in coating, plasma cleaning, and CO2 laser processes. The advantage of RF power supplies over high-frequency power supplies is the flexibility to change the discharge voltage by adjusting the matching angle. A 1kW RF power supply, after adjusting the matching angle using a matching adapter, can achieve an output voltage of 6kV. After the discharge stabilizes, the discharge voltage is further reduced by automatically adjusting the matching angle. This system can be applied in the semiconductor industry, including etching, RIE, parallel plate, ICP, RF sputtering, CVD, and PVD systems. The automatic matching adapter employs a unique "gradient descent high-speed tuning algorithm," which gradually slows down the adjustment speed as the tuning point approaches.

[0003] Existing plasma radio frequency power supplies typically consist of a power supply housing and several power sockets and adjustment knobs. However, in existing technologies, the power sockets and adjustment knobs protrude from the power supply housing. During field use and transportation, these components are easily damaged by impacts, causing them to become loose or even completely destroyed, rendering the power supply unusable. In particular, during movement and transport, the protruding power sockets and adjustment knobs are highly susceptible to damage from side impacts, indicating that the overall durability of the equipment needs improvement.
