Printed by the Shelley Consumer Cooperative of Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs A7 B7 V. Invention Description (<) This led to the design of the material management system An improvement on simplification due to the separation of the wafer transport system between the processing units and the central unit. It will be understood that 'this simplifies the setting of the control system and results in a low $ 5 due to the efficient delivery of Luzaki. According to another embodiment, the separation mechanism is provided in the processing unit and the central unit for automatically transferring wafers between the processing mechanisms. Together with the features of the previous embodiment, this separation leads to a substantial simplification of the automatic conveyance control. According to yet another embodiment, the central unit is configured to supply a useful substance to the processing unit, and to extract the effluent from the processing unit. This resulted in a clear and simple architecture of these systems, and resulted in a much shorter distance for the transport of useful and effluent materials, which in turn led to less material consumption and shorter construction cycles. According to a further embodiment, the processing unit has a rectangular outline. This feature results in a one-lead construction that can be used with pre-built buildings and clean room materials, as well as proven construction methods. Furthermore, this leads to the best use of the floor plan of each unit. According to another preferred embodiment, the processing unit has a hexagonal outline. This feature results in a very good use of the available surface, but may not be the best use of available structural clean room components such as ceiling lattices, wall walls and raised floor members.

Invention Description (ς) The capacity of the production equipment according to the previous description is insufficient 丨In the case of β, it is possible to use a group of at least two production equipment according to the previously defined ones. However, this feature can also be applied to the case where different types of integrated circuits need different processes or different processes. As is known in the art, production equipment has one of the essence from the initial advance to the start of test operation. Time lags behind. In view of the fact that the integrated circuit has a relatively short life cycle, the most important thing is to make the production equipment ready when there is a substantial demand for the product of the equipment. Therefore, tirmng is the most important. It will be clear that a reduction in 'prep time will allow for better timing of investments. Therefore, the present invention also aims at a shorter preparation time. 3 This goal is achieved in that each processing unit is configured for assembly and installation as a separate entity. Therefore, the work required for the construction of the building structure, the installation of clean room materials and other technologies, and the final wiring of the processing equipment can be performed in parallel for each unit, or it can be configured to implement a similar system Applied to individual units in a short sequence to provide effective shortening of the overall implementation cycle of the equipment. According to yet another embodiment, the type, quantity, and quality of the thing that is connected to a processing unit varies from unit to unit ^ Therefore, only the connection systems necessary for the relevant processing unit must be made to result in a topology of the supply system Simplification. According to yet another embodiment, the provision of building hardness, protection against vibration, EMC, and hazards varies from unit to unit. 8 --------------------- Order --------- (Please read the urgent notes on the back before filling this page) This paper size applies China National Standard (CNS) A4 Specification (210 X 297 Gong) Printed by the Consumer Cooperatives of the Ministry of Economic Affairs% Hui Property Bureau A7 B7 V. Invention Description (t) Just as the construction design of such a unit is adjusted to meet the required processing The environment will prevent unnecessary provision. According to yet another embodiment, the number and construction properties of the building floors above and below the main production floor of a processing unit are adapted for the processing facility in that unit. This allows floors to be configured for specific units, such as the distribution of different numbers and types of remote processing units or the provision of supplies. The invention also relates to a method for constructing the aforementioned type of production equipment, wherein the individual processing units are assembled independently. This approach leads to the advantage of faster construction. These advantages can be strengthened when the hierarchy is implemented at least partially parallel to another unit and then 'implemented'.

Invention description (1) Seventh A to Figure E shows a plan view of different architecture groups of the production equipment according to the invention. In the first figure, One of the production equipment is shown in plan view in Figure 1. As shown in the figure 1. The production equipment includes a central unit 2 and six processing units 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8. In this example, The persons discussed in the discussion are: a processing unit 3 equipped for supporting functions: a processing unit 4 configured for CMP / implantation functions; a processing unit 5 equipped for thin-film processing; a processing unit 6 ′ A processing unit 7 is equipped for etching processing, and a processing unit 8 is used for diffusion processing. As shown in the sixth figure, the processing units 3, 4 and 5 include each other on the ground. The three floors are 100, 200, and 300. The main processing equipment for processing wafers is located in the clean room on floor 200. The air-conditioning equipment is located on the upper floor 100, and the remote equipment is located on the lower floor 300. The remote equipment is connected with The processing device on the floor 200 is connected. Furthermore, the pipeline for distributing useful materials (such as ultrapure water or chemicals) used for the processing device is located on the lower level 300. In the central unit 2, the equipment is configured for personnel To processing unit 3-8 In and out. Just as most of the second floor 200 of the processing units 3-8 will have a chamberless state, it is important to control the access of personnel and materials to these processing units. Therefore, the central unit 2 The second floor includes a corridor 50, which is adjacent to all processing unit floors in a clean room state. The corridor 50 is connected to a robe changing and decontamination station 51, ---------- --I -------- Order -------- (Please read the precautions on the back before filling in this page) This paper size is applicable to China National Standard (CNS) A4 (210 X 297) (Mm) Printed by the Consumer Goods Cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs 440090 A7 B7 V. Description of the invention (only) It is then connected to the central part 52 without a clean room, and there are stairs and personnel in the central part Elevators and personal facilities, etc. When a device located on the lower level 300 must also enter and exit a station wearing a robe, a similar setting is proposed. The first figure shows an embodiment that discusses six processing units; admittedly, it is also possible to use other numbers of processing units, such as eight processing units. Moreover, the processing units discussed in this figure all have the same rectangular shape, and especially a square shape; it is true that it is possible to use other shapes, or even shapes that are different from each other. The second figure shows a similar embodiment in which both the central unit and the processing unit have a hexagonal shape, but other shapes are possible. The third figure shows a view similar to the first figure, showing the path used to transport the wafer in process. This figure shows clearly that there is a circular path 9 in the central unit 2 and a separate path 10 has been established in each processing unit. Each path 10 is connected by a central path 9 via a path 11. Paths 9 and 10 are separated by a store (not shown). These · Warehouses can be located in central and processing units. By decoupling the transport system between units and within a unit with a simple graphical route and mutual decoupling, this processing method greatly simplifies its logical thinking and control. The fourth figure shows a three-dimensional isometric view of one of the embodiments drawn in the first figure, in which the path of the power source 12 and other useful objects 13 such as pure water is shown. These useful things enter the production equipment through a set of conduits 12,13.

At the lower level 300, the utility conduit is branched to the lower level of all the processing units' to supply the utility to the device located there. Furthermore, 'the ducts extend upward in the central unit 2' and on the floor 200 of the production equipment, they are branched and connected to a processing tower which needs to be connected to it. — A similar arrangement exists in the upper level 100 ′ for the air-conditioning unit normally located there. A similar duct arrangement 14 exists in the discharge. The devices in the processing unit on the bottom floor will produce smoke and effluents' which, after proper treatment, are distributed to the environment. Conveying is performed through a conduit system 14 'The conduit system 14 extends upwards from the central unit and branches on the appropriate floor. Although only one conduit is drawn, just as there are several different types of effluent categories (which require separate Treatment) 'Of course, it is possible to use several catheter systems. The same considerations apply to the utility conduits 12,13. It will be clear that similar functions and duct systems exist for other useful purposes, such as drains. The function of the central unit also includes the distribution of materials such as raw materials, small quantities of materials required for production, devices and tools to the processing unit, and removal of devices and finished products, as shown by path 16 in the fifth figure. The person can reach the processing unit through the central unit, as shown in path 15. The sixth figure shows a vertical sectional view of the production equipment shown in the first figure. It is shown again that the three floors 100, 200 and 300 together constitute a processing unit. In this example, the 'clean room' is located on the 200th floor.

Invention description (\ Ό) The positions of 3 and 5 are also displayed. The processing unit 5 is provided with relatively dense piles 18 (pilmg), compared to the piles 19 of the processing unit 3 and the piles 17 of the central unit 2. Therefore, the processing floor of processing unit 5 is stronger than the processing floor of processing unit 3. Therefore, the device located on the processing floor 5 is less susceptible to mechanical vibration, making it suitable for a vibration-sensitive device such as a lithographic printing device. Furthermore, relative to units 2 and 3 (which uses solid plates 20 and 22), the actual floor structure of processing unit 5 contains so-called perforated plates 22, resulting in a sturdy structure that permits the use of ducts, cables that extend through the floor The substantial degree of freedom of lines, etc., is used to remove air from the floor. It should be noted that the upper layer of the actual layer structure is the so-called "elevated floor", which provides space for installing cables and ducts, and vertically conveys air to the material-filled space below. If necessary, several production facilities according to the invention can be grouped. The configuration of this group can be changed as required. Several species of these combinations are shown in Figures 7A to 7E. However, these combinations are not considered limiting; other possibilities are conceivable ------------- installation ----------- order --------- line (Please read the notes on the back before filling out this page) 13 This paper size applies to China National Standard (CNS) A4 (210 X 297 mm)
