Abstract

Similar semiconductor chips (12-15), which are produced together on a plate and subsequently dissociated, are provided with identifying markings (17-20) containing their earlier position on the plate. If defects occur later in the dissociated chips, analyses can be made to determine whether defects occur with particular frequency in certain regions of the plate, or whether a statistical distribution exists.
