Abstract:
An apparatus for manufacturing a semiconductor device is provided. The apparatus for manufacturing a semiconductor device may include a mass flow controller configured to control a flow of a process gas supplied to a process chamber, the mass flow controller configured to adjust an outflow rate of the process gas exiting the mass flow controller in response to a correction signal, the correction signal generated based on a difference between an inflow rate of the process gas flowing into the mass flow controller and a reference flow rate, a sensor configured to measure a chamber pressure inside the process chamber, an exhaust valve configured to adjust an exhaust speed of an exhaust gas exhausted from the process chamber; and a monitoring apparatus configured to detect a defect of the mass flow controller based on the correction signal, the chamber pressure, and the exhaust speed of the exhaust valve.

Claim (Index 4):
The apparatus of  claim 3 , wherein, when the correction signal changes, in a case where at least one of the chamber pressure or the exhaust speed changes, the monitoring apparatus determines that a defect has occurred in the flow sensor.
