Abstract:
A system for controlling temperature of a substrate arranged on a substrate support assembly includes first and second sources to respectively supply a fluid at first and second temperatures at a fixed flow rate. First and second three-way proportional valves receive the fluid from the first and second sources, mix first portions of the received fluid to supply the fluid having a predetermined temperature to the substrate support assembly at a predetermined flow rate, and return second portions of the received fluid to the first and second sources. A third three-way proportional valve receives the fluid from the substrate support assembly at the predetermined flow rate and returns the received fluid to the first and second sources. A controller controls the first and second valves to supply the fluid to the substrate support assembly and controls the third valve to divide the fluid between the first and second sources.

Claim (Index 1):
A system for controlling temperature of a substrate arranged on a substrate support assembly, the system comprising:\n first and second sources to respectively supply a fluid at first and second temperatures; a first three-way proportional valve with an input port connected to the first source, a first output port connected to a supply line to supply the fluid from the first source to the substrate support assembly, and a second output port connected to the first source; a second three-way proportional valve with an input port connected to the second source, a first output port connected to the supply line to supply the fluid from the second source to the substrate support assembly, and a second output port connected to the second source; a third three-way proportional valve with an input port connected to a return line to receive the fluid from the substrate support assembly, and first and second output ports respectively connected to the first and second sources to return the fluid received from the substrate support assembly to the first and second sources; and a controller to:\n control the first and second three-way proportional valves to:\n output first portions of the fluid received from the first and second sources via the respective input ports to supply the fluid to the substrate support assembly via the supply line at a predetermined temperature and at a predetermined flow rate; and \n return second portions of the fluid received from the first and second sources via the respective input ports to the first and second sources via the second output ports of the first and second three-way proportional valves, respectively; and \n control the third three-way proportional valve to divide the fluid received from the substrate support assembly via the return line between the first and second sources.
