ABSTRACT:
A method of creating and/or modifying a built-in self test (BIST) table for monitoring a thermal processing system in real-time that includes positioning a plurality of wafers in a processing chamber in the thermal processing system; executing a real-time dynamic model to generate a predicted dynamic process response; creating a measured dynamic process response; determining a dynamic estimation error; determining if the determined dynamic estimation error can be associated with a pre-existing BIST rule in the BIST table; creating a new BIST rule when the dynamic estimation error cannot be associated with any pre-existing BIST rule in the BIST table; and stopping the process when a new BIST rule cannot be created.
