Abstract

A method of determining overlay error. The method includes transferring a pattern from a reticle to a wafer and selecting a first set of data points to measure the positional difference between features on the reticle and features on the wafer. The method also includes determining a second set of data points characteristic of the first set of data points but containing fewer data points. A control system for using the second set of data points to dynamically adjust the position of the reticle.
