Assembly Line Production Supervisor (ALPS)
ALPS NET Overview
ALPS NET is the latest generation which builds on the foundation provided by ALPS 2.
ALPS NET offers a total solution for managing substrate maps used during the test, assembly and packaging of advanced semiconductors.
ALPS NET adds native support for the new SEMI E142 Substrate Mapping standard which offers a unified approach for...
- More substrate types (wafer, frame, strip, tray...)
- More data types, (bin code, XY transfer, device identifier for single device tracking...)
- More process steps and more equipment integrated (wafer probe, bump inspect, die attach, flip chip, wire bond, strip test, laser mark, singulation and final test)
It is now possible to track single devices through the entire process. Device quality (bin code) can be fed forward to prevent further processing time and consumable being expended on known bad devices. Test and inspection defects detected at any point in the process can be correlated with substrate geometry patterns, equipment, consumables, shift, etc. to identify and correct the root cause of defect.
ALPS NET is offered in several configurations, all are upward compatible within the Product Suite, allowing a scalable investment strategy and implementation roadmap. ALPS NET offers very basic wafer mapping, with ALPS NET WM or a fully functional Wafer, Strip and Device mapping and traceability package in ALPS NET. The ALPS NET Software is a fully qualified and production proven enterprise software tool, that when combined with other ALPS Products like ALPS EMI offer the semiconductor Test and Assembly End-user market a comprehensive inkless wafer, strip and device mapping solution with a powerful historical database environment that can generate customer reports and allow complete inter-company and factory location transparency for a global solution.

ALPS 2
ALPS 2 is an earlier version of ALPS. It has provided solutions to the semiconductor industry for wafer mapping in inkless assembly since 1995. With its large installed base, comprehensive program features and support for a wide range of equipment models, ALPS 2 is the industry’s leading wafer map data management and equipment integration software product for inkless assembly.
There are two product versions available: ALPS LT, the full package, and ALPS EL, a limited version with only the essential wafer mapping features. Both are still being sold and supported but no further product development is taking place.
