                      Today KLA-Tencor Corporation announced a new, high-throughput defect inspection / metrology / review system for leading-edge chip manufacturers: the CIRCLTM suite. Designed for operation in lithography, outgoing quality control (OQC) and other process modules, this new cluster tool monitors the front side, back side and edge of the wafer for defects and, in parallel, measures wafer edge profile, edge bead concentricity and macro overlay error. Data collection is governed by DirectedSamplingTM, an innovative approach that uses results from one measurement to trigger other types of measurements within the cluster as needed.
