N
egative
Reason
I reject document 4982 on the grounds that it lacks an essential
requirement and so cannot be implemented; thus it is not ready for
publication as a SEMI Standard. The only essential difference
between this document and the published standard E154 is the door
closing force, but this requirement is not specified in a
publically available document. If this information is made
explicitly available (e.g. by providing a value for the closing
force in the document, or by reference to another published
standard), then I would accept the document. This would require a
non-editorial modification and reballot.

Comments Comment 1
Referenced Section *TF/Committee to fill in if necessary From
Entegris: Barry Gregerson
Comment We believe that it is preferable to have single 450mm
load port specification that is compatible with all carrier types
ie.. FOUP, FOSB and MAC.
Com
ment
Discussion
TF Response: It was not possible to build consensus in the ISB
TF for FOSB closing force to be the same as the FOUP and MAC, hence
a separate LP document was developed to address the need for the
FOSB higher closing force to avoid creating problems for the FOUP,
equipment suppliers and end users. The FOSB LP was discussed and
agreed upon by the Load Port team and the IPIC TF and the ballot
was reviewed by the PIC technical editor.
The committee agreed to do one of the following actions. X *No
motion is required in this step. X No further action was taken by

4 Subcommittee & Task Force Reports
4.1 EUV Reticle Task Force
Long He reported for the EUV Reticle Task Force. (See Attachment
03.) The task force plans to ballot an update to SEMI E152;
proposed revisions include adding purging ports (# and location)
and door bottom sensor pads (#, location, and size). (Full details
of the proposal are included in the attachment.)
Discussion of the proposal: Slide 4:
The drawing is reference only – Mutaz Haddadin and Robert
Carlson said it should NOT be used. Matt Fuller said that “purge
ports” should be called “port exclusion areas”. Also, there should
be 4 of these
areas, not 2. Mutaz Haddadin and Robert Carlson said “sensing
pad” should be “sensing area” and should encompass
pod lock mechanism area. Matt Fuller said the task force should
refer to E158 for an example of how to define exclusion areas
and
sensing areas.
Slide 5: Alan Crockett noted that ergonomic considerations are
not limited to weight, but are also determined by reach.
Slide 6: Consensus from the meeting attendees that there should
be no top manual handle.
Slide 11: It was noted that the task force needs to check E111
to ensure input from end users with regard to info pad
definitions.
Slide 13: Robert Carlson noted that info pads are not currently
available. Long He noted that info pad sensing for RFID is
implicitly included.

No report was provided. Ian McLeod noted that the task force met
earlier in the week and discussed drafts of ballots in development
by the Japan 450mm ATDP Task Force.
4.3 450mm International Physical Interfaces & Carriers
(450IPIC) Task Force
Mutaz Haddadin reported for the 450mm IPIC Task Force. (See
Attachment XX.) The task force conducted ballot review for
revisions to E154 and E158 and for a new standard on 450mm front
opening shipping box (FOSB) loadports. Mutaz noted that the 450mm
FOSB loadport standard, though approved by the committee, will not
be published until the FOSB standard is published, and also that if
the FOSB standard changes (e.g. closing force value changes,
clamping force changes, etc.), the NA PIC Committee will revisit
the FOSB loadport standard to ensure that compatibility is still
valid.
