[0001] The present application belongs to the field of semiconductor technology, and in particular relates to a device for detecting current in an electrostatic chuck power supply loop and semiconductor process equipment. Background Art
[0002] A chuck is a support platform located within the processing chamber of semiconductor processing equipment, used to secure and support the wafer being processed or the tray containing the wafer. An electrostatic chuck (ESC) utilizes the principle of electrostatic adsorption to secure the wafer or tray. The ESC's base contains embedded chuck electrodes, which are supplied with high-voltage DC power by the ESC power supply. This generates an electrostatic force between the chuck and the wafer, securing the wafer or tray to the chuck.
[0003] To better understand the operating status of semiconductor process equipment and protect equipment and personnel, it is necessary to accurately detect the ESC power supply circuit current and design necessary short-circuit protection circuits. ESC power supplies have the characteristics of outputting high voltage and low current, which brings certain difficulties to current detection.
[0004] In the related art, the detection scheme of the ESC power supply loop current is shown in FIG1 . A sampling resistor R is connected in series to the output end of the electrostatic chuck power supply 010 . The current signal flowing through the sampling resistor R is converted into a voltage signal, and the voltage signal is amplified by the operational amplifier 012 . + 、IN - ) to ground (GND) voltage HV + 、HV + -U (U is generally less than 10V) are all DC high voltage (generally one thousand to tens of thousands of volts), and the reference potential terminal of the operational amplifier 012 is grounded (GND), so the input terminal (IN + 、IN - ) There is a voltage difference of one thousand to tens of thousands of volts between the reference potential terminal. To ensure the withstand voltage requirement of the operational amplifier 012, the operational amplifier 012 needs to use a high-voltage isolated operational amplifier, that is, the input and output terminals of the operational amplifier 012 are isolated, and the isolation voltage Uiso ≥ the voltage HV output from the ESC power supply to the load + Output. By detecting the voltage at the output of operational amplifier 012 and using the amplification ratio, the current in the ESC power supply circuit can be calculated. However, high-voltage isolated operational amplifiers are expensive and have limited isolation voltages. When the voltage at the output of the electrostatic chuck power supply is too high, the current detection accuracy is poor. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The purpose of the embodiments of the present application is to provide a device for detecting the loop current of an electrostatic chuck power supply and semiconductor process equipment, so as to solve the problems in the related art that the high-voltage isolated operational amplifier is expensive and the isolation voltage is limited, and when the voltage at the output end of the electrostatic chuck power supply is too large, the current detection accuracy is poor.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:
[0007] In a first aspect, an embodiment of the present application provides a device for detecting the loop current of an electrostatic chuck power supply, comprising: a sampling resistor, the sampling resistor being connected in series to the output end of the electrostatic chuck power supply; an operational amplifier, the positive input end of the operational amplifier being connected to the input end of the sampling resistor, the negative input end of the operational amplifier being connected to the output end of the sampling resistor, the reference potential end of the operational amplifier being used to input a first reference voltage, the absolute voltage difference between the first reference voltage and the output voltage of the output end of the electrostatic chuck power supply being less than the withstand voltage difference of the operational amplifier, the power supply end of the operational amplifier being used to input a first power supply voltage, the first power supply voltage being higher than the first reference voltage by a preset first voltage value, and the output end of the operational amplifier being used to output a voltage signal proportional to the loop current.
[0008] In a second aspect, an embodiment of the present application provides a semiconductor process equipment, comprising: an electrostatic chuck, an electrostatic chuck power supply, and a detection device for the electrostatic chuck power supply loop current as described in the first aspect of the present application.
[0009] At least one of the above technical solutions adopted in the embodiments of the present application can achieve the following beneficial effects:
[0010] In an embodiment of the present application, a reference potential terminal of the operational amplifier is used to input a first reference voltage, and the absolute voltage difference between the first reference voltage and the output voltage of the output terminal of the electrostatic chuck power supply is less than the withstand voltage difference of the operational amplifier. The power supply terminal of the operational amplifier is used to input a first supply voltage, and the first supply voltage is higher than the first reference voltage by a predetermined first voltage value. By setting the first reference voltage of the reference potential terminal of the operational amplifier so that the absolute voltage difference between the first reference voltage and the output voltage of the output terminal of the electrostatic chuck power supply is less than the withstand voltage difference of the operational amplifier, the voltage relative to ground of the input terminal (positive input terminal and negative input terminal) and the output terminal of the operational amplifier are both DC high voltage, but the voltage difference between any two terminals is very low. Therefore, the operational amplifier can be a conventional operational amplifier without high-voltage isolation, avoiding the high cost and limited isolation voltage of high-voltage isolated operational amplifiers. When the high voltage at the output terminal of the electrostatic chuck power supply is too large, the current detection accuracy is poor, thereby reducing costs and improving the accuracy of current detection.

[0019] To make the purpose, technical solutions, and advantages of this application more clear, the technical solutions of this application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the specific embodiments of this application and the corresponding drawings. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of this application, not all of them. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0020] The terms "first", "second", etc. in this application are used to distinguish similar objects and are not used to describe a specific order or precedence. It should be understood that the data used in this way can be interchangeable under appropriate circumstances so that the embodiments of the present application can be implemented in an order other than those illustrated or described here. In addition, "and / or" in this application represents at least one of the connected objects, and the character " / " generally indicates that the objects associated with each other are in an "or" relationship. It should be noted that the data involved in this application are all obtained under the premise of obtaining user authorization.
[0021] A chuck is a support platform located within the processing chamber of semiconductor processing equipment, used to secure and support the wafer being processed or the tray containing the wafer. An electrostatic chuck (ESC) utilizes the principle of electrostatic adsorption to secure the wafer or tray. The ESC's base contains embedded chuck electrodes, which are supplied with high-voltage DC power by the ESC power supply. This generates an electrostatic force between the chuck and the wafer, securing the wafer or tray to the chuck.
[0022] FIG2 is a schematic diagram of the electrostatic chuck electrical system. As shown in FIG2 , the base of the electrostatic chuck 23 includes a first ceramic layer 22 and a second ceramic layer 26. The first ceramic layer 22 and the second ceramic layer 26 are respectively embedded with a first electrode 21 and a second electrode 25. The first electrode 21 and the second electrode 25 are made of metal and are respectively surrounded by the first ceramic layer 22 and the second ceramic layer 26 on all four sides. The two high-voltage output terminals HV + Output, HV - The output is connected to the first electrode 21 and the second electrode 25 through the first filter circuit 24 and the second filter circuit 27 respectively.
[0023] The voltage at the two high-voltage output terminals of the electrostatic chuck power supply 010 is typically between one thousand and tens of thousands of volts (V). Because both ceramic layers are made of insulating materials, the loop current of the electrostatic chuck power supply 010 is extremely low. For example, in a Coulomb-type electrostatic chuck, both ceramic layers are made of high-purity ceramic. The resistance between the two electrodes and ground is generally required to be greater than 1000 gigaohms (GΩ), or the loop current I of the electrostatic chuck power supply 010 is required to be less than 10 microamperes (μA). In a JR-type electrostatic chuck, both ceramic layers are doped with conductive materials, resulting in a slightly higher loop current I, generally required to be less than 200 μA.
[0024] To better understand the operating status of semiconductor process equipment and protect equipment and personnel, it is necessary to accurately detect the ESC power supply circuit current and design necessary short-circuit protection circuits. ESC power supplies have the characteristics of outputting high voltage and low current, which brings certain difficulties to current detection.
[0025] In the related art, a high-voltage isolated operational amplifier is used to detect the ESC power supply loop current. However, high-voltage isolated operational amplifiers are relatively expensive and have a limited isolation voltage. When the voltage at the output end of the electrostatic chuck power supply is too high, the accuracy of current detection is poor. To this end, the present application proposes an electrostatic chuck power supply loop current detection device and semiconductor process equipment to address the problems in the related art of high-voltage isolated operational amplifiers, such as the high cost and limited isolation voltage of the high-voltage isolated operational amplifiers, and the poor current detection accuracy when the voltage at the output end of the electrostatic chuck power supply is too high.
[0026] The following describes in detail the technical solutions provided by various embodiments of the present application in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[0027] FIG3 is a schematic diagram of a structure of a device for detecting the current in an electrostatic chuck power supply circuit according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in FIG3 , the device for detecting the current in an electrostatic chuck power supply circuit according to an embodiment of the present application may include: a sampling resistor R and a voltage detection unit 31 .
[0028] The sampling resistor R is connected in series to the output end of the electrostatic chuck power supply 10 .
[0029] It should be noted that the output terminal of the electrostatic chuck power supply 10 can be the positive output terminal of the electrostatic chuck power supply 10 or the negative output terminal of the electrostatic chuck power supply 10. The output voltage of the positive output terminal of the electrostatic chuck power supply 10 is HV + , the output voltage of the negative output terminal of the electrostatic chuck power supply 10 is HV - , the voltage output to the load is recorded as HV + Output, HV - For the convenience of description, the following description will be made by taking the output terminal of the electrostatic chuck power supply 10 as the positive output terminal of the electrostatic chuck power supply 10 as an example.
[0030] The voltage detection unit 31 is used to amplify and perform other processing on the sampled voltage U across the sampling resistor R to generate a detection voltage, which is then outputted through the output terminal of the voltage detection unit 31. Based on this detection voltage, the sampled voltage U across the sampling resistor R can be calculated. Furthermore, based on the sampled voltage U and the resistance R of the sampling resistor R, the loop current I of the electrostatic chuck power supply 10 flowing through the sampling resistor R can be calculated, where I = U / R.
[0031] The voltage detection unit 31 may specifically include an operational amplifier 12 .
[0032] The positive input terminal IN+ of the operational amplifier 12 is connected to the input terminal of the sampling resistor R, and the negative input terminal IN- of the operational amplifier 12 is connected to the output terminal of the sampling resistor R. The output terminal of the operational amplifier 12 is used to output a voltage signal proportional to the loop current. The input voltage U of the operational amplifier 12 = R*I. The operational amplifier 12 amplifies the voltage U. The gain (amplification factor) of the operational amplifier 12 is adjustable and is recorded as K. 12 The voltage U at the output of the operational amplifier 12 12 =K 12 *U=K 12 *R*I,U 12 ∝I, through the circuit conversion of the operational amplifier 12 and the sampling resistor R, the current signal I of the sampling resistor R is converted into a voltage signal U 12 .
[0033] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the high-voltage isolation operational amplifier 012 in Figure 1, the operational amplifier 12 in the embodiment of the present application adopts an ordinary operational amplifier, and the isolation voltage between its input and output ends is greater than the preset voltage (for example, 12V) to meet the conditions.
[0034] In an electric field, the voltage at a given point will vary depending on the reference voltage. In electronic circuits, the metal baseplate (ground) is typically used as the reference voltage. This reference voltage is set to zero, so voltages below the reference voltage are negative, and voltages above the reference voltage are positive. A positive voltage at a point indicates that the voltage at that point is higher than the reference voltage; a negative voltage indicates that the voltage at that point is lower than the reference voltage. The voltage at each point is calculated by calculating the difference between the reference voltage and the reference voltage. The voltage at a point in a circuit is relative; different reference voltages will affect the voltage at each point. However, the voltage between two points in a circuit is fixed and does not change with different reference voltages; that is, it is independent of the reference voltage. The reference voltage can also be a specific value.
[0035] The supply voltage VDD of the operational amplifier 012 in FIG1 + =12V, the reference potential terminal of the operational amplifier 012 in FIG1 is grounded (GND), and the corresponding reference voltage VDD - =0V, that is, the supply voltage VDD of the operational amplifier 012 + Compared to reference voltage VDD - High 12V.
[0036] Different from the operational amplifier 012 in FIG1 , the reference potential terminal of the operational amplifier 12 in the embodiment of the present application is used to input the first reference voltage VDD1 - , the first reference voltage VDD1 - The output voltage HV of the output terminal of the electrostatic chuck power supply 10 is + The absolute voltage difference △VDD1 between them is less than the withstand voltage difference U1 of the operational amplifier 12 max , that is, VDD1 - The value range is (HV + -U1 max , HV + +U1 max ), for example, the reference potential terminal of the operational amplifier 12 can be connected to the output terminal of the electrostatic chuck power supply 10 (the corresponding voltage is recorded as HV + ) connection, that is, the reference potential terminal of the operational amplifier 12 is connected to the first reference voltage VDD1 to the ground - =HV + Correspondingly, the power supply terminal of the operational amplifier 12 is used to input the first power supply voltage VDD1 + , the first supply voltage VDD1+ than the first reference voltage VDD1 - The first voltage value △v1, namely VDD1, is high + =VDD1 - +△v1. The range of the first voltage value △v1 is 3.3V~36V, for example, it can be 12V. At this time, VDD1 + =VDD1 - +12V. With the first reference voltage VDD1 - -HV + =△VDD1 as an example, where △VDD1 is less than the withstand voltage difference U1 of the operational amplifier 12 max , if HV + The voltage to ground is 2000V, then VDD1 - The voltage relative to ground is positive 2000V+△VDD1, that is, the first reference voltage of the operational amplifier 12 is positive 2000V+△VDD1 (relative to ground), VDD1 + The voltage to ground is 2012V+△VDD1. The voltage IN of the positive input terminal of the operational amplifier 12 is + and the first reference voltage VDD1 - The voltage difference between + -VDD1 - =2000-2000-△VDD1=-△VDD1, the voltage IN of the negative input terminal of the operational amplifier 12 - and the first reference voltage VDD1 - The voltage difference between + -U-VDD1 - =2000-U-2000-△VDD1=-U-△VDD1, U is the voltage difference across the sampling resistor R (i.e., the sampling voltage). Generally, U<10V, that is, the voltage difference between the input and output terminals of the operational amplifier 12 is <10V+△VDD1, and △VDD1<the withstand voltage difference U1 of the operational amplifier 12 max , so an ordinary non-high voltage isolated operational amplifier can be used, such as the withstand voltage difference U1 max It can be selected as 10V, then VDD1 - The value range is (1990, 2010) V. In some embodiments, ΔVDD1 = 0. In this case, the reference potential terminal of the operational amplifier 12 is the first reference voltage VDD1 relative to the ground. - =HV + , that is, the first reference voltage VDD1 - With HV + Same potential, first supply voltage VDD1 + =HV + +△v1, that is, the first power supply voltage VDD1+ than HV + High △ v1, the voltage IN of the positive input terminal of the operational amplifier 12 + and the first reference voltage VDD1 - The voltage difference between them is 0, and the voltage IN of the negative input terminal of the operational amplifier 12 is - and the first reference voltage VDD1 - The voltage difference between them is -U, so an ordinary non-high-voltage isolated operational amplifier can be used.
[0037] Furthermore, the voltage detection unit 31 may further include a photocoupler 13 .
[0038] Since the input terminal (IN + 、IN - ) to ground voltage HV + 、HV + -U are both DC high voltages. After amplification, the voltage U at the output of the operational amplifier 12 12 It is also a DC high voltage. The device that receives the detection voltage output by the voltage detection unit 31 and is used to calculate the current I is generally a low-voltage device. Therefore, the voltage U at the output of the operational amplifier 12 needs to be 12 High voltage isolation is performed to ensure the accuracy of current detection.
[0039] Specifically, a photocoupler 13 may be provided between the operational amplifier 12 and the output of the voltage detection unit 31 , with the input of the photocoupler 13 connected to the output of the operational amplifier 12 , and the output of the photocoupler 13 connected to the output of the voltage detection unit 31 .
[0040] The optocoupler 13 can be a linear optocoupler, such as the ISO224 series. The optocoupler 13 includes a light emitter T1 and a light receiver T2. There is no electrical connection between the light emitter T1 and the light receiver T2. Information is transmitted through light intensity, and the isolation voltage can reach 10,000 to tens of thousands of volts. The output voltage U of the linear optocoupler 13 is 13 and input voltage U 12 Proportional, and the ratio is adjustable, denoted as K 13 , the voltage U at the output of the optocoupler 13 13 =K 13 *U 12 =K 13 *K 12 *U=K 13 *K 12 *R*I,U 13 ∝I, through circuit conversion, the current signal I of the sampling resistor R is converted into a voltage signal U 13 By detecting the voltage signal U 13, the loop current I can be calculated.
[0041] The positive input terminal of the light emitting device T1 is connected to the output terminal of the operational amplifier 12, and the negative input terminal of the light emitting device T1 and the reference potential terminal are respectively used to input the second reference voltage VDD2 - , the second reference voltage VDD2 - The output voltage HV of the output terminal of the electrostatic chuck power supply 10 is + The absolute voltage difference △VDD2 between them is less than the withstand voltage difference U2 of the light emitting device T1 max , that is, VDD2 - The value range is (HV + -U2 max , HV + +U2 max ), for example, the negative input terminal and the reference potential terminal of the light emitter T1 can be connected to the output terminal of the electrostatic chuck power supply 10 (the corresponding voltage is recorded as HV + ) connection, that is, the second reference voltage VDD2 to the ground of the reference potential terminal of the light emitting device T1 - =HV + Correspondingly, the power supply terminal of the light emitting device T1 is used to input the second power supply voltage VDD2 + , the second supply voltage VDD2 + than the second reference voltage VDD2 - The second voltage value △v2, namely VDD2 + =VDD2 - +△v2. The second voltage value △v2 has a value range of 3.3V to 36V, for example, it can be 12V. At this time, VDD2 + =VDD2 - +12 V. Similarly, in some embodiments, ΔVDD2=0.
[0042] The reference potential terminal of the light receiver T2 is grounded (GND), and the power supply terminal of the light receiver T2 is used to input a third power supply voltage, which is a preset third voltage value (eg, 12 V). The output terminal of the light receiver T2 is connected to the output terminal of the voltage detection unit 31 .
[0043] Furthermore, the voltage detection unit 31 may further include a voltage follower 14, and the optocoupler 13 is connected to the output terminal of the voltage detection unit 31 via the voltage follower 14. The basic principle of the voltage follower 14 is to use negative feedback to achieve matching between the output voltage and the input voltage. The voltage follower 14 includes an amplifier and a feedback circuit. The feedback circuit compares the output signal of the amplifier with the input signal and feeds back the difference to the input terminal of the amplifier to maintain the stability of the output voltage.
[0044] Specifically, the positive input terminal IN of the voltage follower 14+ They are connected to the positive output terminal of the photocoupler 13 and the output terminal of the voltage follower 14 respectively, and the negative input terminal IN of the voltage follower 14 - The output end of the voltage follower 14 is connected to the negative output end of the photocoupler 13 , and is the output end of the voltage detection unit 31 .
[0045] The reference potential terminal of the voltage follower 14 is grounded (GND), and the power supply terminal of the voltage follower 14 is used to input a fourth power supply voltage, which is a preset fourth voltage value (for example, 12V). Since the voltages of the input terminal, output terminal, and power supply terminal of the voltage follower 14 are all within 12V relative to ground (when the third voltage value and the fourth voltage value are 12V), the voltage follower 14 can use an ordinary non-high-voltage isolated operational amplifier. The voltage U at the output terminal of the voltage follower 14 is 14 =U 13 =K 13 *U 12 =K 13 *K 12 *U=K 13 *K 12 *R*I,U 14 ∝I, through circuit conversion, the current signal I of the sampling resistor R is converted into a voltage signal U 14 By detecting the voltage signal U 14 , the loop current I can be calculated.
[0046] As shown in Figure 4 , considering the extremely weak loop current I, a tunneling magnetoresistance (TMR) sensor 11 can be placed before the input of operational amplifier 12, based on the configuration shown in Figure 3 , to improve sampling accuracy. TMR sensor 11 has an integrated coil, is resistant to external magnetic interference, and offers extremely high precision. For example, the TMR-MAC005 sensor has a resolution of 150 nanoamperes (nA), meeting the microcurrent sampling requirements of ESC power supply 10 .
[0047] The positive input terminal IN of the TMR sensor 11 + Connected to the input end of the sampling resistor R, the negative input terminal IN of the TMR sensor 11 - Connected to the output end of the sampling resistor R, the positive output end Out of the TMR sensor 11 + The positive input terminal IN of the operational amplifier 12 + Connect the negative output terminal of TMR sensor 11 to - The negative input terminal IN of the operational amplifier 12 - The TMR sensor 11 is a linear sensor, and the output voltage U 11It is proportional to the input voltage U and the ratio is adjustable, denoted as K 11 , the output voltage U of the TMR sensor 11 11 =K 11 *U. Correspondingly, the voltage U at the output of the voltage follower 14 14 =U 13 =K 13 *U 12 =K 13 *K 12 *U 11 =K 13 *K 12 *K 11 *R*I,U 14 ∝I, through circuit conversion, the current signal I of the sampling resistor R is converted into a voltage signal U 14 By detecting the voltage signal U 14 , the loop current I can be calculated.
[0048] Similar to the operational amplifier 12, in order to overcome the shortcomings of the high-voltage isolation operational amplifier 012 in Figure 1, the TMR sensor 11 in the embodiment of the present application adopts an ordinary linear sensor, and the isolation voltage between the input and output ends is greater than the preset voltage (for example, 12V) to meet the conditions.
[0049] Specifically, the reference potential terminal of the TMR sensor 11 is used to input the fifth reference voltage VDD5 - , the fifth reference voltage VDD5 - The output voltage HV of the output terminal of the electrostatic chuck power supply 10 is + The absolute voltage difference △VDD5 between them is less than the tolerance voltage difference U5 of the TMR sensor 11 max , that is, VDD5 - The value range is (HV + -U5 max , HV + +U5 max ), for example, the reference potential end of the TMR sensor 11 can be connected to the output end of the electrostatic chuck power supply 10 (the corresponding voltage is recorded as HV + ) connection, that is, the fifth reference voltage VDD5 to the ground of the reference potential terminal of the TMR sensor 11 - =HV + The power supply terminal of the TMR sensor 11 is used to input the fifth power supply voltage VDD5 + , the fifth power supply voltage VDD5 + than the fifth reference voltage VDD5 - The fifth voltage value △v5, namely VDD5, is high. + =VDD5 -+△v5. The fifth voltage value △v5 has a value range of 3.3V to 36V, for example, it can be 12V. At this time, VDD5 + =VDD5 - +12 V. Similarly, in some embodiments, ΔVDD5=0.
[0050] If HV + The voltage to ground is 2000V, then VDD5 - The voltage relative to the ground is positive 2000V+ΔVDD5, that is, the fifth reference voltage of the TMR sensor 11 is positive 2000V+ΔVDD5 (relative to the ground), VDD5 + The voltage to ground is 2012V+ΔVDD5. The voltage IN at the positive input terminal of the TMR sensor 11 is + and the fifth reference voltage VDD5 - The voltage difference between + -VDD5 - =2000-2000-ΔVDD5=-ΔVDD5, the voltage IN of the negative input terminal of the TMR sensor 11 - and the fifth reference voltage VDD5 - The voltage difference between + -U-VDD5 - =2000-U-2000-△VDD5=-U-△VDD5, U is the voltage difference across the sampling resistor R (i.e., the sampling voltage). Generally, U<10V, that is, the voltage difference between the input and output ends of the TMR sensor 11 is <10V+△VDD5, and △VDD1<the withstand voltage difference U1 of the operational amplifier. max Therefore, a common non-high voltage isolated linear sensor can be used, such as the withstand voltage difference U5 max It can be selected as 12V, then VDD1 - The value range is (1988, 2012)V.
[0051] Correspondingly, the input terminal IN of the operational amplifier 12 + 、IN - The output terminal Out of the TMR sensor 11 + and Out - , assuming that the first reference voltage VDD1 - and the fifth reference voltage VDD5 - All HV + ,Out + and Out - The voltage value relative to the reference voltage is recorded as V Out+ and V Out- , the positive input terminal IN of the operational amplifier 12 + The voltage and its reference voltage VDD- The voltage difference between the Out+ +HV + -VDD - =V Out+ , the negative input terminal IN of the operational amplifier 12 - The voltage and its reference voltage VDD - The voltage difference between the Out- +HV + -VDD - =V Out- , V Out+ and V Out- are all less than 12V (when the supply voltage of the TMR sensor 11 to the ground is 12V, according to the rail-to-rail rule, the output voltage to the ground is ≤12V), that is, the voltage difference between the input and output terminals of the operational amplifier 12 is ≤12V. Although the input terminal (IN + 、IN - ) and the output voltage to ground are both DC high voltage, but the voltage difference between any two is very low, so an ordinary non-high voltage isolated operational amplifier can be used.

[0054] As shown in FIG5 , the power supply unit is a direct current to direct current (DC / DC) circuit. Specifically, the power supply unit may include a voltage conversion module T5. A first input terminal of the voltage conversion module T5 is used to input a sixth supply voltage, which is a preset sixth voltage value, such as 24V. A second input terminal of the voltage conversion module T5 is connected to ground (GND) via the chopper module IC2. A first output terminal (SGND) of the voltage conversion module T5 is connected to the output terminal of the electrostatic chuck power supply, that is, to the reference potential terminal of the operational amplifier 12, the photocoupler 13, and the TMR sensor 11 in FIG3 and FIG4 .

[0075] In summary, in the detection device for the loop current of the electrostatic chuck power supply of the embodiment of the present application, the reference potential terminal of the operational amplifier is connected to the output terminal of the electrostatic chuck power supply, and the power supply terminal of the operational amplifier is used to input a first power supply voltage, and the first power supply voltage is higher than the output voltage of the output terminal of the electrostatic chuck power supply by a preset first voltage value. By setting the reference voltage of the reference potential terminal of the operational amplifier to the output voltage of the output terminal of the electrostatic chuck power supply, the voltage to ground of the input terminal (input positive terminal, input negative terminal) and the output terminal of the operational amplifier are both DC high voltage, but the voltage difference between any two is very low, so the operational amplifier can use a common operational amplifier with non-high voltage isolation, avoiding the high cost of the high voltage isolation operational amplifier and the limited value of the isolation voltage. When the high voltage voltage at the output terminal of the electrostatic chuck power supply is too large, the accuracy of the current detection is poor, which reduces the cost and improves the accuracy of the current detection. High voltage isolation is achieved by the photoelectric coupler 13, low-cost high voltage isolation is achieved, and the accuracy of current detection is guaranteed. The stability of the output detection voltage is guaranteed by the voltage follower, thereby improving the accuracy of current detection. The TMR sensor improves the accuracy of current sampling and the reference voltage of the TMR sensor, allowing the use of a non-high-voltage isolated TMR sensor, avoiding the high cost of high-voltage isolation. The power supply unit provides the required high-voltage power supply voltage to each component in the voltage detection unit.
