Abstract
In one embodiment, a system for semiconductor fabrication includes a continuous wave (CW) radio frequency (RF) source and a pulsing RF source. The system further includes a matching network positioned between the CW RF source and the load and a control circuit. The control circuit receives one or more signals indicative of the pulsing RF signal, and selects a portion of the pulsing RF signal. The control circuit then samples at least one parameter during the selected portion of the pulsing RF signal. Based on the at least one parameter, the control circuit causes an alteration of the at least one variable reactance element, which causes the matching network to impedance match between the CW RF source and the load.
