摘要: A substrate processing system having a bi-directional interface and concomitant communication protocol to allow a controller to communicate with an external endpoint system is disclosed. More specifically, the substrate processing system comprises a controller and an endpoint detection system that are coupled together via a RS-232 interface. A SECS compliant communication protocol is employed to effect communication between the controller and endpoint detection system to increase wafer processing information exchange and data exchange.
