Abstract

A dispensing system used in a spin coater is provided to transport a solvent to a wafer. The dispensing, system includes a switch valve, a sucking-back valve, a solenoid valve, a speed control unit of the sucking-back valve, and a speed control unit of the switch valve. The switch valve controls a solvent dispensing status. The sucking-back valve receives the solvent from the switch valve and exports the solvent to a wafer. The solenoid valve controls the switch valve and the sucking-back valve. The speed control unit of the switch valve is coupled between the switch valve and the solenoid valve and is used for a control of action speed on the switch valve. The speed control unit of the sucking-back valve is coupled between the switch valve and the sucking-back valve, and is used for a control of action speed of the sucking-back valve by a sufficient delay time of action.
