Abstract

This Standard was technically approved by the global Information & Control Technical Committee. This edition was approved for publication by the global Audits and Reviews Subcommittee on September 12, 2011. Available at www.semiviews.org and www.semi.org in December 2011; originally published July 2005; previously published November 2006.

NOTICE: This Document is no longer published with the SEMI E54 suite of Standards. It is published and sold separately.

 

This Specification defines a communication specification based on the ANSI/EIA/CEA 709.1 Control Networking Protocol (LonWorks) to enable communications between intelligent devices on a sensor/actuator network (SAN) that operate in accordance with SEMI-specified device models (common and device specific) on semiconductor manufacturing equipment.

 

This Document specifies a mapping of the SEMI common device model (CDM) onto LonWorks technology using the LonMark interoperability guidelines established for LonWorks devices. The LonMark International Association will review and approve the enhanced SEMI LonMark functional profiles presented in this network communication Document and incorporate the required SEMI profiles into the LonMark Interoperability Guidelines.

 

Background and Motivation The LonWorks communications system provides interconnection of smart control devices such as sensors, actuators, and controllers in a fast-response time, low-cost network for industrial use. LonWorks enables multiple devices to share a single network, thereby significantly reducing the point-to-point wiring between controllers, sensors, and actuators. The LonWorks network communications standard (NCS) is based on the seven-layer ANSI/EIA/CEA 709.1 (LonWorks) protocol, implemented by the Neuron Chip, a physical layer transceiver, and an optional host processor. The ANSI/EIA/CEA 709.1 (LonWorks) control networking protocol was developed by Echelon and may be freely licensed for implementation on any hardware platform. The SEMI NCS for LonWorks is based on the LonMark interoperability guidelines, which provide a framework for interoperable use of the ANSI/EIA/CEA 709.1 (LonWorks) protocol at layers 1 through 6, as well as at the application layer. Where the LonMark interoperability guidelines do not provide the functionality required by the SEMI CDM and the SEMI specific device models (SDM), the guidelines are extended with SEMI-specific enhanced profile requirements.
