US Patent 9140978 Semiconductor multi-project or multi-product wafer process

The embodiment provides a semiconductor MP wafer process including processing a plurality of MP wafers in a lot or batch with a first process step. The plurality of the MP wafers is split into an MP wafer group-1 and an MP wafer group-2. At least one of the MP wafers of the MP wafer group-1 is processed with a second process step-1 and at least one of the MP wafers of the MP wafer group-2 is processed with a second process step-2 to form different device components on the MP wafers of the MP wafer group-1 and group-2, respectively. At least one of the MP wafers of the MP wafer group-1 is processed with a third process step-3 and at least one of the MP wafers of the MP wafer group-2 is processed with a third process step-4 to form a substantially same device component on the MP wafers.
