Patented Plug & Play SECS/GEM Solutions for Legacy Equipment
Solution Overview
EIGEMBox is a plug-and-play solution that adds SECS/GEM, Modbus, or OPC capability to legacy semiconductor equipment—without any software or hardware installation on the tool itself. By simply connecting the equipment’s display cable (VGA, DVI, or HDMI) and optionally the keyboard/mouse ports (USB or PS/2), EIGEMBox enables full host communication and remote control. It has been successfully used in various scenarios, including enhancing SECS/GEM communication with full parameter exchange and reduced latency, enabling AMHS (E84/E87) integration in 200MM fabs, and extracting non-standard data beyond traditional SECS/GEM limitations to support advanced monitoring and automation.
Enhancing SECS/GEM Communication
EIGEMBox enhanced SECS/GEM communication by enabling full parameter exchange, reducing latency, and improving automation efficiency on legacy semiconductor equipment.
AMHS Integration in 200MM Fab
EIGEMBox enabled E84/E87 protocol support for 200MM Fab tools, allowing seamless AMHS integration and reducing manual material handling for improved efficiency and throughput.
Advanced SECS/GEM Data Extraction with EIGEMBox
EIGEMBox enables the extraction of additional, non-standard data from semiconductor equipment, enhancing SECS/GEM communication and providing richer insights for better monitoring and process control.
Benefits Of EIGEMBox
