SEMI E164 - Specification for EDA Common Metadata -
Abstract
The purpose of this Specification is to promote commonality among implementations by defining common representations and conventions of equipment metadata based on SEMI E125 Specification for Equipment Self-Description.
The scope of this Specification includes:
- Common approaches for defining specific elements of equipment metadata
- The metadata representation of selected SEMI Communication Standards, including those widely used in 300 mm semiconductor factories
This Specification defines equipment metadata based on SEMI E125-0710 and SEMI E120-0310.
This Specification applies only to production equipment that act on substrates.
