What this category of data looks like

This category of data primarily originates from wafer test maps, manufacturing execution systems (MES), bonders and molding equipment, ATE test machines, X-ray/SAM inspection equipment, and customer specification documents. Daily generated documents include packaging process cards, bonding and molding parameter tables, wafer incoming material maps, test program version files, yield reports, and failure analysis reports. Data updates follow production batches, single-chip test results, and daily operational rhythms, covering full-process records from wafer incoming material to finished product testing.

What constraints these characteristics impose on the vector models and indexes workflow

Aligning wafer incoming material maps with physical batches requires precise matching of coordinate and batch information. This demands indexes to effectively support mixed features of structured fields and unstructured documents. High-frequency daily updated ATE test data and yield reports require indexes to support incremental updates, avoiding time-consuming full reconstruction. Packaging parameters vary significantly across different batches, so vector models must capture device states corresponding to subtle parameter differences. Failure analysis reports contain a large number of professional terms and failure modes, requiring indexes to deliver higher accuracy in vector representation of domain-specific terms. Mixed storage of multi-source heterogeneous data also increases index retrieval complexity, requiring targeted optimization of chunking and matching logic.

How to set configurations

Configuration ItemRecommended SettingRationale
Chunk Length800–1200 charactersThe content length of packaging process cards and parameter forms mostly falls within this range, preventing damage to parameter associations across chunks
Overlap Length100–150 charactersPreserves parameter continuity across chunks, avoiding context breaks for bonding parameters
maxToken4096 tokenAdapts to the maximum input length of bce-embedding-v1, preventing truncation of critical failure analysis content
defaultTokenCalibrated based on actual measurementsAdjusts the default token threshold for short-text data from single-chip tests to balance retrieval accuracy and speed
Similarity Threshold0.72–0.80Professional terms in the semiconductor field require a high threshold for vector matching, filtering irrelevant equipment inspection records
Single Search LimitTop 8 resultsATE test data has strong batch relevance, and a small number of highly matched results can cover typical maintenance scenarios

Three common configuration errors

  • Symptom: After using chunk mode to call the pushdata API to upload data, the interface remains in the "Indexing" state with no updates for a long time. Cause: No incremental update trigger rule is configured, or chunk parsing fails because the chunk length exceeds the model's supported upper limit.
  • Symptom: The last set of indexes generated after Q&A splitting fails to complete vectorization. Cause: The token count of the last chunk set exceeds the maxToken limit, and no automatic truncation or completion logic is triggered.
  • Symptom: Retrieval results have low matching accuracy after connecting to bce-embedding-v1. Cause: The similarity threshold is not adjusted to match the vector distribution characteristics of this model, or the input token requirements of the model are not aligned.

How to verify correct configuration

  • Upload a single packaging process card document, and check whether the chunking results retain complete parameter entries and process steps.
  • Call the pushdata API to upload incremental test data, and verify whether the index update progress matches the expected rhythm.
  • Enter professional questions related to equipment inspection, and verify whether the retrieval results include yield reports and failure analysis reports corresponding to the target batch.
  • View the vector model call logs, and confirm that the actual usage values of defaultToken and maxToken meet the configured requirements.
