RELATED INFORMATION 1
NOTE: The material contained in these application notes is not an official part of SEMI E22, and it is not meant to modify or
supersede it in any way. Rather, these notes are provided primarily as a source of information to aid in the application of the
standard. As such, they are to be considered as reference material only. The standard should be referred to in all cases.
R1-1 Wafer Transport
R1-1.1 The standard (see Section 6.1) does not require
that the entire transport module end effector move in a
horizontal attitude while the wafer does have this
requirement. For example, the transport module end
effector may have a component of motion in a plane
other than the horizontal during wafer transport across
the interface plane.
R1-2 Variables — Definitions and Dimensions
R1-2.1 The function of Table 2 (see Section 6.2) is to
list the numerical values for the wafer dependent
variables used in Figures 1 and 2. The values are wafer
size dependent so as not to penalize the design of a
transport module end effector when handling only small
diameter wafers. For example, the physical size of a
transport module end effector for a 100 mm diameter
wafer may be smaller than that for a 200 mm diameter
wafer.
R1-3 Vertical Plane Exclusion Zone
R1-3.1 The development of the numeric values
specified in the standard (see Section 6.5) and given in
Figure 2 are described below.
R1-3.2 The 3 mm height above the wafer transport
plane (defined in SEMI E21) allows for transport
module end effectors which use contraints (e.g., a
cupped device or pins) to ensure the wafer does not
slide. Also, this may be necessary if the wafer is
transported with the circuit side facing down.
R1-3.3 The 7 mm value allows for a 4 mm thickness
below the wafer transport plane to accommodate a
structurally and thermally strong transport module end
effector design.
R1-3.4 The 12.5 mm thickness allows for process or
cassette modules with a minimum slot opening value of
less than 32 mm (see SEMI E21).
R1-3.5 The 200 mm minimum length part of the
exclusion zone allows for a transport module end
effector of limited reach to pass into modules with slot
openings smaller than the minimum value of 32 mm.
R1-3.6 The 23 mm thickness allows for the presence
of a “wrist” joint or for additional rigidity in the
transport module end effector.
R1-3.7 The 120 mm length is specified as a fixed
number to ensure that multiple wafer sizes (and
transport module end effectors) do not necessarily
demand a change in geometry of the receiving module
around the wafer transport position.
R1-3.8 The minimum nominal clearance above and
below the exclusion zone is 1.5 mm on both sides of the
transport module end effector when it passes through
the minimum slot opening. This takes into account the
exclusion zone size due to the vertical travel the
transport module end effector may experience.
R1-3.9 A subset of the vertical plane exclusion zone
(see Figure R1-1) is required by a transport module end
effector which must access wafers directly from SEMI
standard or equivalent cassettes. The vertical plane
exclusion zone described in the standard (see Figure 2)
was not subject to these restrictions since a single
generic transport module end effector design was found
not to be practical.
R1-4 Transport Module End Effector Exclusion
Volume
R1-4.1 This volume as described in Section 6.6 is
intended to be the volume within which the transport
module end effector has complete autonomy. Therefore,
process and cassette modules are not allowed to violate
this volume during wafer transport. This prevents
mechanical interference between the transport module
end effector and the process or cassette module.
