Claim 9:
10. A multi-chamber processing tool for processing a substrate, comprising:
a first equipment front end module (EFEM) having one or more first loadports for receiving a first type of substrate, one or more second loadports for receiving a second type of substrate having a plurality of chiplets, and a EFEM robot configured to transfer the first type of substrate and the second type of substrate;
a second EFEM having one or more second loadports for receiving the first type of substrate, one or more second loadports for receiving a second type of substrate having a plurality of chiplets, and an EFEM robot configured to transfer the first type of substrate and the second type of substrate; and
a plurality of atmospheric modular mainframes (AMMs) coupled to each other and having a first AMM coupled to the first EFEM and a last AMM coupled to the second EFEM, wherein each of the plurality of AMMs include a transfer chamber and a one or more process chambers comprising at least one of a wet clean chamber, a plasma chamber, a degas chamber, a radiation chamber, or a bonder chamber, coupled to the transfer chamber, wherein the transfer chamber includes a buffer configured to hold one or more of the first type of substrates and one or more of the second type of substrates, and wherein the transfer chamber includes a transfer robot configured to transfer the first type of substrate and the second type of substrate between the buffer, the one or more process chambers, and a buffer disposed in an adjacent AMM of the plurality of AMMs; and
wherein the one or more process chambers of a first AMM of the plurality of AMMs includes at least one of a plasma chamber or a degas chamber and includes a wet clean chamber, a second AMM of the plurality of AMMs coupled to the first AMM includes at least one of a plasma chamber or a degas chamber, and a third AMM of the plurality of AMMs coupled to the second AMM includes one or more bonder chambers configured to remove the plurality of chiplets from the second type of substrate and bond the plurality of chiplets onto the first type of substrate.
