KXGEM300 SDK
SEMI GEM300 standard is used for automated management of material handling, equipment processes, and material tracking in factories. Front-end semiconductor fabs and advanced packaging factories all require their production equipment to meet the GEM300 standards. Unlike the SECS/GEM standard, GEM300 focuses more on specifying how semiconductor equipment software should perform fully automated production in the factory. Equipment conforming to GEM300 standard typically needs to meet the following SEMI standards:
- Object Services Strandard (E39 OSS）
- Specification For Substrate Tracking (E90 STS)
- Standard For Processing Management (E40 PJM)
- Specification For Control Job Management (E94 CJM)
- Specification For Equipment Performance Tracking (E116 EPT)
- Specification For Carrier Management (E87 CRM)
- Specification For Enhanced Carrier Handoff Parallel I/O Interface (E84 AMHS)
- Specification For Module Process Tracking (E157 MPT)
KXGEM300 is a GEM300 software development kit (SDK) independently developed by Kxware Technology Information. Currently, more than 20 types of semiconductor devices integrate KXGEM300 software, and it has been running stably for a long time in more than 10 mainstream semiconductor chip manufacturing plants in China.
