Efficient hard marking that survives the harshest
processing of 100 mm - 300 mm wafers
THE INDUSTRY-LEADING SOFTMARK SOLUTION
SigmaDSC is the industry-leading solution for SEMI-standard compliant hard marking on semiconductor wafers. TUI’s control software enables the user to manage much of the system’s functionality. Programmable. Depth Control allows for adjusting marking depth, up to 100 μm.
DUAL-SPOT OPTICS™ FOR TWO SOFTWARE-SELECTED SPOT SIZES
SigmaDSC’s Dual-Spot Optics™ technology allows for the delivery of two separate software-controlled spot sizes on the same system. Depending on the laser deployed in the system, users can select from a range of calibrated spot sizes, from 50 μm to 110 μm.
HIGH PERFORMANCE WITH GREATER CONTROL
SigmaDSC combines a high-performance laser system with best-in-class system-level closed-loop control and automated system data logging. All laser performance data is accurately logged to SPC levels of mark quality.
SEMI-COMPLIANT WAFER MARKING
TUI’s WaferMark® systems are fully compliant with SEMI standards for wafer marking: T7, M12 and M13. SigmaDSC can place multiple mark groups at any orientation on the wafer surface, within a 25 mm band around the wafer’s circumference.
