Description

Key Technical Specifications

  • Part Number: 0190-24007
  • OEM Cross-Reference: MKS-AS03720-23 (later revision of AS03720-21)
  • Board Family: cPCI-3720
  • Form Factor: 3U CompactPCI
  • Bus Standard: PICMG 2.0 CompactPCI, 32-bit
  • Function: Rack-mounted processor/controller board for AMAT tool electronics
  • Application: Used in AMAT process chamber control racks (gas panel, RF match, or endpoint controller subsystems, depending on installed configuration)
  • Interface: Front-panel connectors per cPCI-3720 pinout — verify exact I/O count against your rack’s wiring diagram
  • Mounting: Standard 3U cPCI card cage slot, hot-swap-capable backplane dependent on chassis
  • Compatibility Note: Confirm firmware/BIOS revision against your existing AS03720 unit before ordering — this series has at least two documented hardware revisions (AS03720-21 and -23)

Note: Detailed electrical specs (voltage rails, current draw, onboard memory, processor type) for this exact revision are not published in open OEM documentation. Cross-check against the datasheet or your tool’s spare parts list before purchase.

 

Product Introduction

The AMAT 0190-24007 is a 3U CompactPCI processor board used as the controller card in Applied Materials process tool electronics racks, cross-referenced to MKS-AS03720-23 in the cPCI-3720 board family. It slots into a standard PICMG 2.0 CompactPCI backplane and handles processor-level control functions for the associated subsystem.

Buyers replacing an existing unit choose this part because it’s a direct pull from decommissioned AMAT tooling rather than a generic third-party clone, meaning the pinout, mounting, and firmware compatibility already match the field-deployed base. Confirm your installed hardware revision (AS03720-21 vs -23) before ordering, since AMAT updated this board at least once during its production run.

 

Troubleshooting Quick Reference

Symptom Possible Cause Relevance to this Part Quick Check Method Recommendation
No LEDs, board dead on power-up Backplane power fault ❌ Low Measure 3.3V/5V rails at backplane connector Check power supply and backplane fuses before replacing board
Board boots but no comms with rest of rack Bus/backplane wiring or connector issue ❌ Low Reseat board, inspect cPCI connector pins for bent/corroded contacts Rule out backplane and cabling first
Intermittent faults, tool throws random errors Firmware/config mismatch after a swap ✅ High Compare firmware revision on old board (if legible) vs replacement Document old board’s rev before pulling it
Board runs hot, thermal shutdown Airflow blockage in chassis ❌ Low Check card cage fans and filters Clean/replace fans before condemning the board
Process recipe won’t load / config lost Onboard config not backed up during swap ✅ High Check if board retains stored parameters after cold boot Backup old board’s configuration before removal if possible

If none of these checks resolve the fault, contact technical support with photos of the board, the fault code from your tool’s diagnostic log, and the exact revision markings on the removed unit.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Is this the same as MKS AS03720-21, or is -23 a different revision?
They’re related but not identical — AS03720-21 and AS03720-23 are documented as separate hardware revisions of the same cPCI-3720 board family. Pull your existing board and check the printed revision marking before ordering, since a mismatch can cause comms or config issues depending on how your rack firmware talks to it.

Can I hot-swap this board while the tool is running?
Don’t assume you can just because it’s a CompactPCI card cage. Hot-swap support depends on your specific backplane and chassis configuration, not just the board itself. Kill power to the rack section first unless you’ve confirmed your backplane is rated and configured for hot insertion.

Will my process recipes and configuration carry over after the swap?
That depends on whether your configuration lives on the board itself or elsewhere in the tool’s control system. To be honest, on older AMAT racks this varies by subsystem. Back up whatever settings you can access on the outgoing board before pulling it, just in case.

Why is this cheaper than buying new from AMAT?
Because it’s not new — this is pulled from decommissioned or surplus tooling, not manufactured to order. AMAT and MKS haven’t produced this board fresh in years; new-build isn’t realistically available at any price for most of these legacy CompactPCI parts.

Is this New Surplus or Refurbished?
Condition varies by lot — some units are pulled-and-tested New Surplus, others go through a refurbishment pass. Confirm the specific condition and test status with the seller before you commit, especially if you need documentation for your own QC records.

What’s the biggest mistake people make replacing this board?
Not documenting the outgoing board’s revision and any visible config markings before pulling it. ❗ Take a photo of the label and any DIP switches or jumpers first. It’s a five-second step that saves you a troubleshooting session later.

Is there a warranty on this part?
Confirm directly with your supplier — warranty terms on surplus/refurbished semiconductor tool parts vary widely by seller and aren’t standardized industry-wide the way new OEM parts are.
