The key to making wafer level RF testing a production process control tool is fully automated measurements. This means that a ro-bot delivers the wafer, the calibration standard, and the probe card to where they are needed. In other words, a major test system de-sign goal is absolute data integrity without human intervention. If

Plasma is initiated in the system by applying a strong RF (radio frequency) electromagnetic field to the wafer platter. The field is typically set to a frequency of 13.56 Megahertz, applied at a few hundred watts. The oscillating electric field ionizes the gas molecules by stripping them of electrons, creating a plasma.
