Abstract
A main controllerof a main substrateperforms serial communications with a sub controllerof each flowrate control substrate. The flowrate of the carrier gas is controlled with the flowrate control circuitunder the control performed by each sub controller. Thus, the main controlleronly needs to execute the processing of performing the serial communications with each sub controller. As a result, the processing executed by the main controllercan be reduced, and the processing executed by the main controlleris less likely to overwhelm its processing capability even when the number of flowrate control substratesis increased. In addition, a signal linebetween the main controllerand each sub controllercan be made long. Thus, the distance between the main substrateand each of the flowrate control substratescan be made long.
