SEMI E88 - Specification for AMHS Storage SEM (Stocker SEM) -
Abstract
This Standard establishes a Specific Equipment Model (SEM) for AMHS storage equipment (Stocker SEM). The model consists of equipment characteristics and behaviors that are to be implemented in addition to the SEMI E30 fundamental requirements and selected additional capabilities. The intent of this Standard is to facilitate the integration of Stocker SEM equipment into an automated (e.g., semiconductor fabrication and flat panel display) factory. This Standard accomplishes this by defining an operational model for Stocker SEM equipment as viewed by a factory automation controller (Host). This definition provides a standard host interface and equipment operational behavior (e.g., control, state models, and data reports). Several topics require additional activity that are within the scope of this Standard: queuing, parallel interface for carrier transfer (SEMI E23), stocker controller architecture, and scheduling and transport of the transfer unit.
The scope of this Standard is limited to the usage and description of AMHS storage equipment (Stockers) as perceived by a SEMI Equipment Communications Standard 2 (SECS-II) host that complies with the GEM model (as specified in § 13). It defines the view of the equipment through the SECS communication link. It does not define the internal operation of the equipment. It includes a specific transfer command state model and stocker controller state model as the basis for all equipment of this class.
This Standard assumes that the GEM fundamental requirements and selected additional capabilities (as specified in § 13) have been implemented on the Stocker SEM equipment. It expands the GEM standard requirements and capabilities in the areas of state models (stocker controller, transfer command, carrier and stocker crane state models), collection events, alarm documentation, remote commands, data item variables, and material movement.
