SEMI A4 - Specification for the Automated Test Equipment Tester Event Messaging for Semiconductors (TEMS) -

Abstract

NOTICE: The designation of SEMI A4 was updated during the 0821 publishing cycle to reflect the publication of SEMI A4.1. By purchasing this download, you will receive both the Primary Standard, SEMI A4 and the Subordinate Standard, SEMI A4.1

 

Semiconductor test operations involving automated test equipment (ATE) today are experiencing increasing use of data for real-time data analysis and real-time ATE input and control, to improve test yield, throughput, efficiency, and product quality. At the same time, test equipment and test operations around the world use a diverse range of data formats, specifications, and interface requirements that create significant customer service and application engineering costs for ATE vendors, OSAT companies, IDM test operations, software providers, and handler equipment. The goal of this Specification is to create a vendor neutral way to collect test cell data.

This Specification describes the data communication between the test cell and an external server.

This Specification covers test cell data and operating conditions collection.

 

This Specification indicates the minimum interface requirements along with methods for adding custom capabilities.
