Application of RFID technology in different aspects of the semiconductor industry

The application of RFID technology in the semiconductor industry has become more and more widespread, and it plays an important role in different links of the semiconductor industry. It can not only improve production efficiency, but also provide quality assurance.

The following will introduce the application of RFID technology in different aspects of the semiconductor industry:

The TI glass tube label is the identity mark of the wafer box. The TI glass tube label of each wafer box records its own wafer chip information. Therefore, the TI glass tube label needs to be installed in any appropriate position of the wafer box. That’s it; the semiconductor RFID Reader is an RFID reading and writing device that obtains the wafer box identification (TI glass tube label).

FOUP wafer box production tracking management

Semiconductor RFID readers are deployed on each process equipment. When the wafer box passes by, the reader automatically collects the information of the TI glass tube, verifies and proofreads the information of the wafer box, and tracks every component used in the product production process. Tools to master the time spent on each production step to automatically control and optimize the manufacturing process!

Semiconductor electronic shelf management

Install the semiconductor electronic shelf RFID reader behind the semiconductor electronic shelf identification position. When the wafer box is placed on the semiconductor electronic shelf, the semiconductor RFID reader located at the identification position reads the TI tag through infrared induction and triggers the antenna, thereby collecting the information of the wafer box. At the same time, the display at the front of the semiconductor electronics shelf will display the types of chip products in real time. When the wafer box is removed, the semiconductor RFID reader cannot sense the presence of the TI tag, and will display on the display that the corresponding product has been removed.

Wafer cAssette storage cabinet management

The semiconductor RFID reader is embedded into the support plate of the storage cabinet carrying platform. When the wafer box is placed in the storage cabinet, the semiconductor RFID reader identifies the TI glass tube label, obtains the product information of the wafer box, and confirms whether the wafer box is Store it correctly and at the same time obtain the storage location of the wafer chip, so that the stored wafer can be found immediately when necessary.

Wafer box silicon wafer cleaning

The semiconductor RFID reader is deployed above the wafer cleaning station. When the wafer box equipped with the TI glass tube label is delivered to the cleaning area, the semiconductor RFID reader will automatically read and determine the wafer. Whether the box has reached its preset position. After the cleaning operation is completed, the collected TI label information will be uploaded to the management system, and the wafer silicon wafers that have completed the cleaning step will be marked. When the semiconductor RFID reader reads the tag again, it can know which processes the wafer silicon wafer has completed, thereby preventing process confusion.

Semiconductor crane site identification and handling management

Site identification: RFID tags are installed on the track of the semiconductor crane, and the semiconductor RFID reader is deployed on the crane. When the RFID reader receives the RFID tag at the track site, the crane's driving position information can be obtained. Conduct real-time dynamic monitoring of the position of the crane, and conduct line planning and scheduling based on its own location to ensure the safe operating distance and transportation efficiency of the crane.

Transportation management: When the FOUP wafer box is transported by the overhead truck, the semiconductor RFID reader receives relevant information from the TI glass tube tag to ensure that the FOUP wafer box being transported is accurate. When traveling to the corresponding storage/placement location, the semiconductor RFID reader recognizes the tag information of the destination again, and places the FOUP wafer box that matches the information in the corresponding location, and at the same time, retrieves all the information at the time of placement. Upload to the management system.
