Assignee: INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORPORATION
Field: Computer technology (Electrical engineering)
Classification: CPC H  G | IPC G  H

Claim 23:
24. A computer system for sorting a fabricated semiconductor device into a higher performance designated sorting bin by improving a performance level of the semiconductor device, the computer program product comprising:
one or more computer processors,
one or more computer readable storage media,
program instructions stored on the computer readable storage media for execution by at least one of the one or more processors, the program instructions comprising:
program instructions to determine a predicted sorting bin of a semiconductor device, based on measurement and test data performed on the semiconductor device subsequent to a current metallization layer;
program instructions to determine a target sorting bin for the semiconductor device, wherein the target sorting bin is a higher performance designated bin than the predicted sorting bin, and wherein the target sorting bin is determined by a machine learning model that determines a performance level improvement of the semiconductor device attainable by adjustments made to process parameters of one or more subsequent metallization layers of the semiconductor device;
program instructions to generate adjustments for the process parameters of the one or more subsequent metallization layers of the semiconductor device, based on measurement and test data of the current metallization layer of semiconductor device; and
program instructions to adjust the process parameters of the one or more subsequent metallization layer processes of the semiconductor device.
