Abstract

On the basis of research on CTC (Cluster Tool Controller) software framework and SEMI (Semiconductor Equipment and Materials International) standard, the real-time scheduling system model of CTC, which consists of supervisory control level and module management level, is proposed. The supervisory control level is an abstract one, and is in charge of controlling schedule logic. According to principle of separating logical and function, a scheduling control logical model based on Extended Finite State Machine is proposed, as well as its control procedure under normal and exception conditions. In level of model management, task is breakdown in accordance with SEMI CTMC standard. At last, by analysis of test and verification of real-time scheduling system, the proposed model is verified using the idea of “virtual control”.
