ABSTRACT:
A method for managing stepper operations required during the manufacturing of an integrated circuit die having at least one known defect, as determined by inspection, comprises the steps of determining, based upon an analysis of the connectivity and defect information relating to the die having at least one known defect a probability of failure to each at least one known defect and eliminating from stepper operations any die having at least one fatal defect.
