ESD

Beschreibung

The scaling of semiconductor devices from sub-micron to nanometerdimensions is driving the need for understanding the design ofelectrostatic discharge (ESD) circuits, and the response of theseintegrated circuits (IC) to ESD phenomena. ESD Circuits and Devices provides a clear insight intothe layout and design of circuitry for protection againstelectrical overstress (EOS) and ESD. With an emphasis onexamples, this text: * explains ESD buffering, ballasting, current distribution,design segmentation, feedback, coupling, and de-coupling ESD designmethods; * outlines the fundamental analytical models and experimentalresults for the ESD design of MOSFETs and diode semiconductordevice elements, with a focus on CMOS, silicon on insulator (SOI),and Silicon Germanium (SiGe) technology; * focuses on the ESD design, optimization, integration andsynthesis of these elements and concepts into ESD networks, as wellas applying within the off-chip driver networks, and on-chipreceivers; and * highlights state-of-the-art ESD input circuits, as well as ESDpower clamps networks. Continuing the author's series of books on ESD, this bookwill be an invaluable reference for the professional semiconductorchip and system ESD engineer. Semiconductor device andprocess development, quality, reliability and failure analysisengineers will also find it an essential tool. In addition,both senior undergraduate and graduate students in microelectronicsand IC design will find its numerous examples useful.
