SEMI debuts specs covering MEMs, masks.


San Jose -- In October, SEMI announced the release of eight standards, including specifications for epitaxial silicon wafers, test methods for measuring mechanical vibrations in FPD (1) (Flat Panel Display) See LCD, plasma display, EL display, FED and flat panel display.

(2) (Field Programmable Device) An umbrella term for all chips that can be programmed by the customer including SPLDs, CPLDs and FPGAs. See PLD.
 handling equipment, MEMS (MicroElectroMechanical Systems) Tiny mechanical devices that are built onto semiconductor chips and are measured in micrometers. In the research labs since the 1980s, MEMS devices began to materialize as commercial products in the mid-1990s.  terminologies and data matrix symbology for automated identification of EUV lithography masks.

SEMI (semi.org) releases specs three times per year. This batch of technical standards is applicable to the semiconductor, flat panel display A thin display screen for computer and TV usage. The first flat panels appeared on laptop computers in the mid-1980s, and the LCD technology became the standard. Stand-alone LCD screens became available for desktop computers in the mid-1990s and exceeded sales of CRTs for the first time  and MEMS manufacturing industries.

They are available in CD-ROM CD-ROM: see compact disc.
