In the previous white paper, Selecting an Appropriate ESD Device, we focused solely on the idea that an ESD device’s main goal was to provide the lowest resistance shunt path to GND. And from that ...

The HDMI 1.3 specification supports the demand of future HD display devices for higher resolution and higher frame rates with a color depth up to 48-bit by doubling bandwidth from 165 MHz (4.95 Gbps) ...

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection is an essential facet in the design and operation of modern integrated circuits (ICs). As electronic devices become increasingly miniaturised and complex, ...

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection remains a critical facet in the design and fabrication of CMOS integrated circuits. With the continuing downscaling of device dimensions and the increasing ...

Cortec Corp. has taken the wrapping off its EcoSonic VpCI-125 HP Permanent ESD Stretch Film. Unlike traditional "pink poly" stretch films that offer temporary electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection, ...

As the semiconductor industry transitions to FinFETs, reliability challenges are increasing. ESD designers are challenged with new issues that would require significant rethinking and redesign of ...

Obviously, electrostatic discharge (ESD) is one of many critical considerations in almost every design project. Equally obvious is the fact that there is no shortage of solutions to keep ESD at bay.

Protection against ESD events (commonly referred to as ESD robustness) is an extremely important aspect of integrated circuit (IC) design and verification, including 2.5/3D designs. ESD events cause ...

Drivers and vehicles now rely more heavily on Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS). While the use of systems such as RADAR and LiDAR will be important here, ADAS in vehicles also relies heavily ...

AUSTIN, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The Silicon Integration Initiative Compact Model Coalition is proud to announce the release of the ASM-ESD diode model, a new electrostatic discharge compact modeling ...
