5.1.13 spacing — The minimum spacing between
centroids (see Figure 2, S).
5.1.14 tool — Any piece of semiconductor fabrication
or inspection equipment designed to process wafers
delivered in wafer carriers.
5.1.15 tilt — A small angle of offset from the normal
horizontal or vertical orientation of a cassette or wafer
carrier designed to preferentially align or keep wafers in
their intended place within the carrier/cassette (see
Figure 1, T).
5.1.16 wafer carrier — Any cassette, box, pod, or boat
that contains wafers.
5.1.17 wafer carrier centroid — A datum representing
the theoretical location of the center of a stack of wafers
in the carrier.
5.1.18 wafer carrier envelope — A rectangular volume
with vertical sides which completely contains a carrier,
even if the carrier is tilted (see Figure 1).
5.2 Description of Terms Specific to this Standard
5.2.1 carrier — Wafer carrier.
6 Ordering Information
6.1 The following items require communication
between the tool supplier and user and shall be included
in any request for quotation, quotation, or purchase
order:
6.1.1 If the tool has multiple load ports, provide the
spacing, S, between carrier centroids (see Section 7.8).
6.1.2 Specify what carrier (e.g., SEMI standard
cassette, pod) is to be accommodated by the load port.
6.1.3 Specify whether the load port is open or
enclosed.
6.1.4 Specify whether the wafer orientation is
horizontal (per Section 7.3.1) or vertical (per Section
7.3.2).
7 Requirements
7.1 The dimensions for the placement of a wafer
carrier on the load port of a tool are given in Table 1.
7.2 The standard is based upon the concept that any
wafer carrier can be used. Dimensions are usually
specified as clearances to wafer carrier envelopes (see
envelope concept in Figure 1).
7.3 The global orientation of the cassette or wafer
carrier is constrained to be parallel or perpendicular to
the load face plane. Allowable cassette orientations are:
7.3.1 For wafers horizontal, the opening of the cassette
must be opposite the load face plane, and the front
surface of the wafer must face up (see Figure 4);
7.3.2 For wafers vertical, the opening of the cassette
must face up, and the front surface of the wafer must
face the load face plane (see Figure 5).
7.3.3 This requirement also applies to cassettes in
pods.
7.4
The maximum tilt is 10 degrees.
7.5 The load height is specified as follows (see Figure
3):
7.5.1 Dimension H is 900 mm (~35.4 in.), fully
adjustable over ± 10 mm (~0.4 in.).
7.6 The maximum height above H of an obstruction
between the load face plane and the carrier envelope
(such as for an alignment device or identification tag
reader) is 50 mm (~2 in.) (see Dimension H1 in Figure
3).
7.7 Clearances (C1, C2, and C3) are defined with
respect to the largest carrier envelope required. For
cassettes, envelopes are defined using cassette
dimensions from SEMI E1. For pods or other wafer
carriers, envelopes are defined using the carrier
standard (if any) or the carrier manufacturer's
specifications (see Figure 1 for concept and Figures 2
and 3 for use).
7.8 Dimension S specifies the recommended minimum
spacing between cassette/wafer carrier centroids. In any
case, if S violates clearance C1 in any application, then
C1 prevails (see Figure 2).
7.9 Tools with enclosed load ports shall have a
minimum vertical clearance, C3, above the cassette or
carrier at the load port. Open load ports shall have a
vertical clearance above the load port which is
unrestricted by the tool.
