METHOD FOR REJECTING TUNING DISTURBANCES TO IMPROVE LAMP FAILURE PREDICTION QUALITY IN THERMAL PROCESSES

摘要

Embodiments disclosed herein include methods for reducing or eliminating the impact of tuning disturbances during prediction of lamp failure. In one embodiment, the method comprises monitoring data of a lamp module for a process chamber using one or more physical sensors disposed at different locations within the lamp module, creating virtual sensors based on monitoring data of the lamp module, and providing a prediction model for the lamp module using the virtual sensors as inputs.
