RELATED INFORMATION 1
APPLICATION NOTES
NOTICE: This related information is not an official part of SEMI E117 and was derived from current industry
knowledge. This related information is to be approved for publication by full letter ballot procedure.
NOTICE: This related information is not meant to modify or supersede SEMI E117 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 Application Notes
R1-1.1 Compliance with This Standard — It is the device makers’ expectation that suppliers of production
equipment are ultimately responsible for ensuring that their equipment (as installed in the device makers’ facility)
complies with this standard. This expectation is the same whether the reticle load port is developed internally by the
equipment supplier or is purchased from a third party source. In either case, the production equipment supplier is
responsible for understanding all of the requirements contained in this standard. Full compliance with this standard
can only be determined after the reticle load port is integrated with the equipment and can be directly affected by
production equipment design features (such as user interfaces and light towers).
R1-1.2 To prevent interference between transport systems on the same or adjacent load ports, it is recommended
that floor-based transport vehicles and over-head hoist vehicles not exceed clearances C1 and C2 when picking up or
placing a RSP on the load port.
NOTICE: SEMI makes no warranties or representations as to the suitability of the standards set forth herein for any
particular application. The determination of the suitability of the standard is solely the responsibility of the user.
Users are cautioned to refer to manufacturer's instructions, product labels, product data sheets, and other relevant
literature, respecting any materials or equipment mentioned herein. These standards are subject to change without
notice.
By publication of this standard, Semiconductor Equipment and Materials International (SEMI) takes no position
respecting the validity of any patent rights or copyrights asserted in connection with any items mentioned in this
standard. Users of this standard are expressly advised that determination of any such patent rights or copyrights, and
the risk of infringement of such rights are entirely their own responsibility.

SPECIFICATION FOR WAFER ID READER COMMUNICATION
INTERFACE — THE WAFER ID READER FUNCTIONAL STANDARD:
CONCEPTS, BEHAVIOR AND SERVICE
This specification was technically approved by the Global Information and Control Committee and is the
direct responsibility of the Japan Information and Control Committee. Current edition approved by the Japan
Regional Standards Committee on July 19, 2002. Initially available at www.semi.org October 2002; to be
published November 2002.
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 revisions to
SEMI E118.1.
1 Purpose
1.1 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.
1.2 A standard interface will increase interchange-
ability of Wafer ID Readers so that users and
equipment suppliers have a wider range of choices.
2 Scope
2.1 The Wafer ID Reader Functional Standard
addresses the functional requirements for a generic
Wafer ID Reader interface with an upstream controller.
2.2 The specification includes required behavior and
required communications for a Wafer ID Reader.
2.3 This specification does not require, define, or
prohibit asynchronous messages sent by the Wafer ID
Reader.
2.4 This specification intents to read the Wafer ID
specified by SEMI Standard and accessed in the
equipment where the wafers transfer in / out is executed
with a carrier unit.
NOTICE: This standard does not purport to address
safety issues, if any, associated with its use. It is the
responsibility of the users of this standard to establish
appropriate safety and health practices and determine
the applicability of regulatory or other limitations prior
to use.
3 Limitations
3.1 This standard does not define the specific protocol
to be used for the Wafer ID Reader. Supplements to this
standard are required to describe how the functions of
the Wafer ID Reader are implemented for specific
protocols.

5 Terminology
5.1 Abbreviations and Acronyms
5.1.1 FOUP — Front Opening Unified Pod
5.1.2 WIDR —Wafer ID Reader
5.2 Definitions
5.2.1 attribute — information about or associated with
some entity or object.
5.2.2 carrier — any cassette, box, pod, or boat that
contains wafers.
5.2.3 cassette — an open structure that holds one or
more substrates [SEMI E44].
5.2.4 controller — a system that provides control
(performs required operations when certain conditions
occur or when interpreting and acting upon
instructions) and communicates with a higher level
manager. Controllers exist at all levels within a factory.
Examples of controllers include the Multiple Wafer ID
Reader Controller, the Equipment Controller.
5.2.5 data matrix code symbol — a two-dimensional
array of square cells arranged in contiguous rows and
columns. In certain ECC200 symbols, data regions are
separated by alignment patterns. The data region is
surrounded by a finder pattern [ISO/IEC 16022].
5.2.6 front-opening unified pod (FOUP) — a box (that
complies with SEMI E47.1) with a non-removable
cassette (so that its interior complies with SEMI E1.9)
and with a front-opening interface (that mates with a
FIMS port that complies with SEMI E62).
5.2.7 fundamental requirements — the requirements
for information and behavior that must be satisfied for
compliance to a standard. Fundamental requirements
apply to specific areas of application, objects, or
services.
NOTE 1: All portions of the Wafer ID Reader specification
are considered to be fundamental requirements unless
explicitly described as optional. See also optional
requirement.
5.2.8 load port — the interface location on a tool
where wafer carriers are delivered. It is possible that
wafers are not removed from, or inserted into, the
carrier at this location.
5.2.9 message interleaving — the practice of sending a
new message request before receiving the reply to an
earlier request.
5.2.10 Multiple Wafer ID Reader controller — a unit
controlling the Reader function of one or multiple ID
Reader Heads, communicates the command/data with
the equipment controller or the equivalent controller
such as equipment controller.
5.2.11 optional capability — a specification that is not
required for an implementation to be compliant to a
standard. See also fundamental requirement.
5.2.12 reader head — a structured portion which
functions to detect the ID code. The ID reader unifying
a head function inside its body can be placed as a head.
The ID reader not unifying a head function will be
located separately from the head.
5.2.13 substrate handler — a physical subsystem
which transfers substrates between the carriers and the
process part of the equipment.
5.2.14 upstream controller — a controller that directs
the Wafer ID Reader through the communication
interface.
5.2.15 Wafer ID — an identifier for a wafer. A value
that uniquely identifies a given wafer in a factory. The
identifier may be represented physically with LASER
technologies, etc.
5.2.16 Wafer ID mark — a physical structure for
storing Wafer ID and other information.
5.2.17 Wafer ID Reader — a unit (subsystem) that
detects and decodes data from the Wafer ID mark, and
that communicates with the upstream controller. Wafer
ID Reader may be composed of Multiple Wafer ID
Reader controller and reader heads.
5.3 Data Types
5.3.1 enumerated — may take on one of a limited set
of possible values. These values may be given logical
names, but they may be represented by any single-item
data type.

integer, integer, floating point (float), enumerated,
boolean, text, formatted text, structure, list, ordered list.
5.3.3 integer — may take on the value of any negative
or unsigned integer. Messaging protocol may impose a
limit on the range of possible values.
5.3.4 structure — a specific set of items, of possibly
mixed data types, in a specified arrangement.
5.3.5 text — a character string. Messaging protocol may
impose restrictions, such as length or ASCII
representation.
5.3.6
unsigned integer — may take on the value of any
positive integer or zero. Messaging protocol may
impose a limit on the range of possible values.
