METROLOGY REPLAY LAB / SA-VMET-SMALLDATA-001

Sparse metrology needs a trust gate.
Metrology / Yield

Virtual metrology is useful only when uncertainty, drift, sensor health, sample coverage, guardband, and the next physical measurement are visible. This packet turns that judgment into a browser CSV replay.

EVIDENCE SEQUENCE

What the learner should inspect first.

This surface connects the daily-scan source signal to an original SemiAgora simulation object without copying source text, code, figures, PDK files, or process recipes.

01

Start with module context, sample plan, data age, sensor health, metrology fraction, and model family.

Open the run card to inspect the saved rows, methods, limits, and export files behind this step.

Inspect run card ->
02

Compare prediction error, uncertainty, guardband, Cpk proxy, escape risk, false-hold risk, and sampling cost together.

Open the run card to inspect the saved rows, methods, limits, and export files behind this step.

03

Use the decision gate to decide whether to monitor, sample more, hold for review, or release only with an explicit boundary.

METHODS

Precomputed model contract.

The goal is useful study scaffolding and paper-planning discipline, not calibrated production evidence.

method

Original synthetic virtual-metrology and sampling table based on official public NIST/IRDS vocabulary.

The simulation object keeps the same statement beside downloadable JSON and CSV evidence.

method

No wafer data, model-training service, APC workflow, article text, source dataset, or production release rule is copied.

The simulation object keeps the same statement beside downloadable JSON and CSV evidence.

method

The browser filters saved CSV rows and exposes the model card with no-live-training boundaries.

The simulation object keeps the same statement beside downloadable JSON and CSV evidence.

LIMITS

Useful, but deliberately bounded.

No account, upload, payment, comment, newsletter, live solver, facility workflow, or product-release surface is enabled.

non-claim

No calibrated VM model, physical wafer metrology, tool log, process recipe, APC action, lot release, or quality disposition.

Keep this boundary attached when reusing the card for lesson writing, figure planning, or research notes.

non-claim

Cpk, uncertainty, escape-risk, false-hold, and cost values are teaching proxies, not manufacturing limits.

Keep this boundary attached when reusing the card for lesson writing, figure planning, or research notes.

non-claim

Real work needs owned sensor streams, matched physical metrology, drift monitoring, uncertainty validation, and process-owner review.

Keep this boundary attached when reusing the card for lesson writing, figure planning, or research notes.

SOURCE ANCHOR

Link-only public source spine.

SemiAgora uses the source as a signal and citation anchor, then writes original summaries and original toy data with explicit limitations.
