Abstract

A method for grinding the wafer includes: an initial wafer of which an edge has a test address is provided; a recombined water of which the test address is located in the middle is formed; a following circulation step is performed: a protective layer at least located above the test address is formed on an existing layer of the recombined water; the uncovered existing layer is grinded; the protective layer and the existing layer which is remaining are removed. It is determined whether the test address is exposed, if not, the next circulation step is performed.
