SEMI E132 - Specification for Equipment Client Authentication and Authorization

The authorization scheme specified in this Standard allows equipment vendor the flexibility to provide access control at any level of granularity, ranging from no access control restrictions, predefined role-based access control, to very fine-grained control.

This is a standard that applies to all semiconductor manufacturing equipment that requires authentication and authorization for its services. It does not apply to a communication that is governed by the SEMI E30 communication and control state models.

This Standard does not require data transmitted over an established session to be encrypted, encryption is only required as specified by the authentication protocol. It is assumed that the interface specified by this Standard will be operating in an environment where there are no malicious attacks such as inside a closed factory network.

SEMI E128 — Specification for XML Message Structures

Thursday, May 28, 2020

SEMI E128 - Specification for XML Message Structures

The XML Messaging Specification provides definitions of message headers needed for messages exchanged in an asynchronous or synchronous fashion. Synchronous message delivery is chosen when application communication requires message consumption and execution to be completed before a new message is allowed. Asynchronous messages are delivered independently without dependence on transport technology to correlate related messages. The rationale for choosing an asynchronous message delivery mechanism is based on the characteristics of the interaction between two software systems. Some of these reasons are:

·    Support for long-running Request/Reply interactions may not be practical in synchronous session-oriented communication.

·    Some messaging interactions require additional callback messages reporting on server activity which supplement the reply message.

·    Clients may wish to interleave requests and replies to manage parallel or overlapping activities in multiple concurrent messaging conversations.

Headers defined for asynchronous messaging may also support synchronous interactions that rely on transport sessions for identification and correlation of related messages. However, there may be benefits of using the message header elements specified here even in synchronous interactions. The message header elements provide self-describing information about messages that may be useful for debugging or tracking message traffic. Their use may also enable future migration to different message transports.

The XML Messaging Specification uses established, openly referenceable industry standards for XML messaging where possible. It only specifies extensions to existing industry standards when needed to meet the immediate requirements for messaging in a SEMI Standard application context. The intent of this Standard is not to replicate existing standards or offer competing specifications, but to align with and cite the usage of existing standards.

SEMI E127 - Specification for Integrated Measurement Module Communications: Concepts, Behavior, and Services (IMMC)

The purpose of integrated measurement (metrology or inspection) is to facilitate intra-equipment process monitoring through rapid access to measurement data, reduce material handling between process and measurement equipment, and the opportunity to increase process monitoring with minimal or no decrease in throughput. The benefits of integrated measurement also allow Advanced Process Control systems to use the results with reduced feedback lag time. The purpose of the IMMC specification is to provide an object-based specification of an Integrated Measurement Module together with a standard interface between an integrated measurement module and its control and data ports where these are commonly implemented by different suppliers. The interface allows access to the properties and services of specific objects. This will facilitate the effort needed for the integration of the module into a larger system. An additional purpose of this standard is to provide sufficient information through a combination of on-line services and interface documentation that an IMMC-compliant integrated measurement module may be integrated with multi-module equipment without requiring a software change in either the module or the equipment. This may require configuration changes made by the end-user through the equipment user interface where certain options are left to the module supplier.

SEMI E125 - EQUIPMENT SELF DESCRIPTION

This specification describes a method for allowing equipment suppliers to provide a description of the variables, events, exceptions, and physical equipment configuration available from their equipment. With this information available for consumption by software systems, it can be used as a tool to aid the process of integrating equipment into a factory’s automation system.

In-Scope

This Document specifies the classes that suppliers are to use to describe essential data, events, and exceptions provided by their equipment. The specification only describes the information that is static in nature (i.e., information that does not change dynamically while the equipment is running). This document also specifies an interface that clients can use to access this information.

This Specification applies to all semiconductor manufacturing equipment that supports the data acquisition interface defined in the SEMI Specification for Data Collection Management.

Out of Scope

This specification does not define any new behavior required of the equipment other than that necessary for retrieving information describing equipment configuration, interfaces, and available data, and keeping this information current.

The details of any underlying concepts and behavioral models (e.g., carrier management, process/control job, etc.) that can be described by metadata are to be separately specified in a document dedicated to those concepts. Only the ability to describe the fact that a supplier has implemented such a concept and that a client can discover this implementation and any data it can produce is in scope for this Specification.

This specification does not require that the metadata provided by the equipment be directly human-readable. It is expected that applications will be written to organize and present this information to human users in a form that is easier for end-users to digest.

SEMI E118 - Specification for Wafer ID Reader Communication Interface -- The Wafer ID Reader Functional Standard: Concepts, Behavior and Service

E This standard was editorially modified in February 2005 to correct errors in Figure R2-1.

NOTICE: The designation of SEMI E118 was updated during the 1104 publishing cycle to reflect the creation of SEMI E118.1.

The purpose of the Wafer ID Reader Functional Standard is to provide a common specification for concepts, behavior, and services (functions) provided by a Wafer ID Reader to an upstream controller. A standard interface will increase the interchange-ability of Wafer ID Readers so that users and equipment suppliers have a wider range of choices.

SEMI E107 - Specification of Electric Failure LInk Data Format for Yield Management System

The objective of this Document is the standardization of the specific data format passed from the test equipment to the Yield Management System. The Yield Management System is a kind of data server for detail test data and geometrical defect data of patterns on a wafer as described in the Terminology section of this Document.

This Document assumes a Yield Management System in which test equipment electrical failure information is managed and analyzed in an integrated manner. Examples of test equipment failure information include bit map data, bin data, and inspection information obtained by devices such as wafer inspection equipment and review tools. Standardization of the data file format helps to reduce the development burden on customers and related vendors.

This document specifies the data file format for transferring from test equipment to a Yield Management System.

This document is an extension of the general map data item standard; that is, SEMI G81, and the general map data format document, currently under development. This Document does not redefine the general specification.

The scope of this Document is just defining data items and their formats. Data file creation methods, data creating environments and file naming conventions are outside of the scope of this document. Also, communication protocols to transfer the data are beyond the scope of this document.
