What's New in this Release

The 5.12 release of ConX300™ supports the newest SEMI standards demanded by manufacturers in the semiconductor, LED, solar, and MEMS industries.

SEMI E109 - Specification for Reticle and Pod Management (RPMS)

The E109 standard is used by lithography, reticle inspection and bare reticle stocker equipment to define reticle and reticle pod transfers to and from the equipment as well as reticle movement within the equipment.

The implementation of E109 can vary from full E109 support to using E109 to transfer reticles on the front end while using traditional GEM300 E94 and E40 commands for reticle movement and processing within the tool.


SEMI E148 – Specification for Time Synchronization and Definition of the TS-Clock Object

The E148 standard is used to synchronize equipment computer clocks within a factory where the equipment provides time-sensitive data that requires date and time accuracy across multiple factory components.


The time resolution and time server source requirements will vary across equipment makers and factories, making it important for connectivity solutions to support customers integrating their preferred time server solution to meet their time synchronization needs.

SEMI E157 - Specification for Module Process Tracking

The E157 standard reports process-related data during the execution of a recipe at a processing location, which provides important context data to support applications that optimize yields and improve overall factory performance.


SEMI E87-0709 – Specification for Carrier Management

ConX300 provides new Access Mode Violation alarms to better support the modifications to the SEMI E87-0709 standard.


Operating System and Development Environment Support

Red Hat’s support of the Red Hat® Enterprise Linux® 3 AS/ES/WS operating system was discontinued as of October 31, 2010. As a result, ConX300 is no longer being tested on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3.
