Discussing ESD protection circuit design problems from an IC designer’s perspective, this book provides the materials needed by a circuit designer for designing ESD protection circuits, including: testing models and standards adopted by US Department of Defense, EIA/JEDEC, ESD Association, Automotive Electronics Council, International Electrotechnical Commission, etc; ESD failure analysis, protection devices, and protection of sub-circuits; whole-chip ESD protection and ESD-to-circuit interactions; advanced low-parasitic compact ESD protection structures for RF and mixed-signal ICs; and mixed-mode ESD simulation-design methodologies for design prediction ESD-to-circuit interactions. Many real world ESD protection circuit design examples are provided. This book should be useful as a reference for working IC designers and as a textbook for students in the IC design field.
