Abstract :
A methodology based on association rule concepts is given for detecting fab tool commonality of affected lots. The performance of the methodology is then compared to several traditional methods such as ANOVA and contingency tables using eight actual production cases. In each case, the offending tool is affecting lots at multiple process layers.
