Abstract

Systems and methods for using multiple inductive and capacitive fixtures for applying a variety of plasma conditions to determine fixed parameters of a match network model are described. The multiple fixtures mimic various plasma conditions without occupying tool time in which a wafer is placed within a plasma chamber to generate the fixed parameters of the match network model.
