ABSTRACT:
A dummy dispense of liquid is controlled by recording a time at which a substrate is processed; recording a time at which a liquid is dispensed; comparing the time at which the substrate is processed and the time at which the liquid is dispensed to generate a dummy dispense signal when a dummy dispense is required. A system for controlling dummy dispense of liquid includes at least one information storage device storing a time at which a substrate is processed and a time at which a liquid is dispensed. At least one processor compares the time at which the substrate is processed and the time at which the liquid is dispensed to determine whether a dummy dispense is required.
