Accuracy, Repeatability, and Resolution Defined
accuracy – the maximum deviation from the ideal outcome (e.g., moving to an exact position, exactly measuring a quantity, bonding a stack of pre-aligned wafers without disturbing the alignment) and the actual outcome.

The lower limit of accuracy is repeatability.

See repeatability, resolution.
