    摘要: A communication control apparatus includes a master communication control unit for performing communication control for a plurality of slave units, and an intermediate communication control unit which performs the communication control for each slave unit instead of the master communication control unit. The intermediate communication control unit includes a memory section for holding transmission data necessary for slave unit communication processing and response data, which is a response to the transmission data, a transmission/reception section for sending the transmission data and for receiving the response data, and a communication processing control section. The communication processing control sections sends the transmission data in a predetermined order to the slave unit, which writes the response data received in a predetermined order into the memory section, and notifies the master communication control unit of the completion of the communication processing by using an interruption signal when the communication processing is completed.

    摘要: A laser tracking interferometer; a carriage rotatable about a center of the reference sphere; a laser interferometer that provides a retroreflector displacement signal, and a displacement gage that provides a displacement signal. A data processing apparatus computes displacement of the retroreflector with respect to the reference sphere. A position sensitive detector provides a position signal corresponding to the amount of deviation of a laser beam when the laser beam is reflected off the retroreflector back into the laser interferometer and deviated in a direction orthogonal to its optical axis. A controller controls rotation of the carriage based on the position signal from the position detector so that the amount of deviation becomes zero.

    摘要: A semiconductor memory production system is provided, capable of holding the data necessary for process analysis for each lot in chronological order using a small amount of information, and which enables production management based on data that has been stored previously without performing new measurements. The semiconductor memory production system comprises: an LSI tester 1 that tests semiconductor memory and outputs the addresses of memory cells for each chip and a pass/fail bitmap corresponding to these addresses, and a process defect estimating device 34 that extracts the bit addresses of fail bits from the bitmap, and determines replacement addresses of word lines and bit lines to be replaced by redundant word lines and redundant bit lines in the redundant memory section, and estimates process defects from statistical analysis of the distribution condition of each chip on each wafer. Through this estimated result, feedback to the manufacturing line/process step prevents from producing defects frequently.
