Abstract
A radio frequency (RF) power generator adapted for coupling to a multi-station integrated circuit fabrication chamber may include an oscillator to provide a periodic signal and one or more preamplifiers each having an input port to receive a signal from the oscillator and having an output port to provide an amplified signal. The RF generator may additionally include one or more constant-gain amplifiers, each having an input port to receive a signal from the one or more preamplifiers, and an output port configured for coupling an amplified signal to an electrode for generating a plasma in an assigned station of the multi-station integrated circuit fabrication chamber.
