Vistec ADC HP
The Fast & Easy Way of
High Performance Automatic Defect
Classification
To be successful in today's
advanced semiconductor manufacturing world,
you need Automatic Defect Classification (ADC).ADC
is a fully automated defect review system.
It has the ability to completely replace
cost- and time-consuming manual operator
defect classification, saving money and
manpower. It provides fast, consistent
results and is highly accurate.
Vistec ADC HP is a user
friendly knowledge-based system that
acquires characterization information
directly from the defect image and
classifies the defect using stored
knowledge.
