  • Publication number: 20240087933
    Abstract: A wafer transporting method includes following operations. A plurality of wafers are received in a semiconductor container attached to a mobile vehicle. An air processing system is coupled to a wall of the semiconductor container. The air processing system includes an inlet valve, an outlet valve, a pump between the inlet valve and the outlet valve, and a desiccant coupled to the pump. The semiconductor container is moved. The pump of the air processing system is turned on to extract air from inside the semiconductor container into the air processing system through the inlet valve. Humidity of the air is reduced when the air passes through the desiccant of the air processing system. The air is returned back to the semiconductor container through the outlet valve.

  • Patent number: 11853044
    Abstract: Test equipment for a battery management system is provided. A battery-parameter recognition module measures a standard battery to obtain the first correction input, and uses the capacity test formula and the relaxation time test formula to perform a first charge and discharge test on the battery to be tested to obtain first battery parameter. A real-time simulation module determines the battery model and the simulated battery state based on the first battery parameter and the dynamic load. Each simulator of a physical signal simulation module provides a battery physical signal indicating the battery model. A connector provides the battery physical signal to the battery management controller under test. The battery management controller under test provides a stimulated battery state based on the battery physical signal. Master equipment compares the simulated battery state with an estimated battery state to determine whether the battery management controller under test is normal.
