Wang Albert. Practical ESD Protection Design

Wiley-IEEE Press, 2022. — 418 p. — ISBN 978-1119850403.Electrostatic discharge (ESD) is a serious challenge to the reliability of semiconductors, integrated circuits (ICs), and microelectronic systems—on-chip ESD protection is a vital component of smartphones, laptops, tablets, and other electronic devices. Practical ESD Protection Design provides comprehensive and systematic guidance on all major aspects of on-chip ESD protection for integrated circuits (ICs). Written for students and practicing engineers alike, this one-stop resource covers essential theories, hands-on design skills, computer-aided design (CAD) methods, ESD failure testing and analysis, and more. Detailed chapters examine an array of topics ranging from fundamental to advanced, including ESD phenomena, ESD protection devices and circuits, ESD design layout and technology effects, emerging ESD protection designs, and circuit simulation modelling. Practical ESD Protection Design is a valuable reference for industrial engineers and academic researchers in the field, and an excellent textbook for electronic engineering courses in semiconductor microelectronics and integrated circuit design.Why ESD?
