Q5: How do I get support for EIGEMEquipment?
A5: Support is available through our customer service team, who can assist with installation, configuration, and troubleshooting.
Q6: How does SECS/GEM work?
A6: SECS (SEMI Equipment Communication Standard) and GEM (Generic Equipment Model) are communication protocols used to enable automation systems in the semiconductor and related industries. SECS is the physical and data link layer that defines how the equipment communicates with the factory control systems. GEM is a set of standard protocols and models that define how equipment in semiconductor manufacturing should be automated and controlled. Together, SECS/GEM allows for standardized communication between equipment and host systems for process control, data exchange, and reporting.
Q7: Who maintains SECS/GEM?
A7: SECS/GEM is maintained by SEMI (Semiconductor Equipment and Materials International), a global industry association that develops standards for the semiconductor industry. SEMI works with industry professionals to ensure that SECS/GEM protocols stay up to date with technology advancements and industry needs.
Q8: Where is SECS/GEM used?
A8: SECS/GEM is primarily used in semiconductor manufacturing but is also applicable in other industries such as flat panel display (FPD) manufacturing, photovoltaics, and related automated production environments. It’s used in environments where machines (equipment) need to communicate with host systems for data collection, process control, status reporting, recipe management, and more.
Q9: What is SECS GEM Process Program?
A9: The SECS GEM Process Program refers to a software layer or interface that connects the equipment to the host system in a semiconductor or other manufacturing setup. It consists of a set of rules and standards (as part of GEM) that define how the equipment should respond to commands from the host, send data, report status, and manage alarms. The Process Program ensures that the equipment behaves as expected and communicates efficiently with other systems in the production environment.
