Method for providing rotationally symmetric alignment marks for an alignment system that requires asymmetric geometric layout

摘要

A method and apparatus includes an integrated circuit device, and at least one alignment mark on the integrated circuit device, the alignment mark comprises a first coded region, a second coded region adjacent the first coded region, and a third coded region adjacent the second coded region, the second coded region located between the first coded region and the third coded region, and markings on the first coded region and the third coded region being identical.
