What it is
How it works
Where it fits in the process flow
General reference — not yet source-verifiedDry pumps in fabs usually sit beside or below the tools they support rather than acting directly on the wafer. Dry pumps generally connect to vacuum process chambers, transfer modules, load locks, or support manifolds that need sustained rough vacuum service.
Applications
The Edwards EPX 500 NE is used for semiconductor applications. The Edwards EPX 500 NE is used for ash and strip applications. The Edwards EPX 500 NE is used for implant end station applications.[4]
