SAGS
In the semiconductor industry facilities (FABs) the “voltage sags” or “voltage
dips” (in British English) are the most common power problem and cause
downtime, scrap and M$ losses.
SAG – voltage drop below 90% of the Un ,but not interruption
Causes - Weather conditions ,equipment failure, operation errors

Voltage sags in semiconductor industry
Affected systems:
•Instrument and controller power supplies
•VFD –variable frequency drives
•Voltage monitoring relays
•Circuit breakers open due to increased current on phases without sags
•Sensor faults or errors
•Robot failure
•Internal communication errors
•Computer re-boots

SOLUTIONS
1 IEC performance improvement
In 1999 were registered about 200 events from IEC supply grid
In 2013 were registered about 100 events

2 Increase the voltage sags immunity for equipment's and tools
- Switch power supply settings
- Increase the rating of power supply unit (PSU)
- Reduce the load in the power supply unit(PSU)
- Use 2 Phase PSU instead of one phase
- Use 3 phase PSU
- Change the voltage relays settings (threshold and trip delay)
- Use contactors instead of relays were possible
- VFD calibration instead of scalar to set DFC (direct fly start) were flying start is
automatic

3 Install DVR (Dynamic Voltage Restorer)
The DVR purpose to compensate loss of power during voltage sags
The energy is provided by a capacitors bank Intel DVR statistic• Two DVRs –rated power of one DVR 15/22MVA• Concept : DVR at Off line mode Vs UPS at On line mode• 15 years in service • DVR availability 99.9%• Average voltage compensation /year 120 • DVR external/internal compensation rate 99.5%• Compensation for 1Ph sags– 50% , for 500msec• Compensation for 3Ph sags– 35% , for 500msec

4 SEMI F47- Specification for Semiconductor Process Equipment Voltage Sag ImmunitySCOPESEMI F47-0706 defines the required voltage sag tolerance for a semiconductor tool that must operate without interruptionFor sags Phase to N and two Phases (not 3 Ph) SEMI= Semiconductor Equipment and Materials InternationalThe standard has been implemented by semiconductor tool vendors
Voltage sags in semiconductor industry
The primary focus for tools: Lito, Dif, Etch etc
The secondary focus for utilities subsystems and components
–Power supplies units–Ultrasonic generators–Computers and communication systems –Robots and factory interfaces–AC Contactor coils and AC relay coils–Chillers pumps and blowers–Variable frequency drives (VFD)
Voltage sags in semiconductor industry
SEMI F47 requires that tools tolerate the following voltage sags: •50% remaining voltage, 50% missing voltage, for 200 milliseconds•70% remaining voltage, 30% missing voltage, for 500 milliseconds•80% remaining voltage, 20% missing voltage for 1 second.In addition, SEMI F47 recommends, but does not require, that tools tolerate: •0% remaining voltage, 100% missing voltage, for 1 cycle•80% remaining voltage, 20% missing voltage, for 10 seconds
