Abstract
Consistent with an example embodiment, there is a semiconductor wafer substrate comprising a plurality of integrated circuits formed in arrays of rows and columns on the wafer substrate. A plurality of integrated circuits are in arrays of rows and columns on the wafer substrate; the rows and the columns have a first width. First and second saw lanes separate the integrated circuits, the first saw lanes are arranged parallel and equidistant with one another in a first direction defined by rows, and the second saw lanes are arranged parallel and equidistant with one another in a second direction defined by the columns. A plurality of process modules (PM) are on the wafer substrate, the PM modules defined in an at least one additional row/column having a second width. The at least one additional row/column is parallel to the plurality of device die in one direction.
