As high density circuits move deeper into submicron dimensions Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) effects become an increasing concern. This new edition of a classic reference presents a practical and systematic approach to ESD device physics, modelling and design techniques. The authors draw upon their wealth of industrial experience to provide a complete overview of ESD and its implications in the development of advanced integrated circuits.
Fully revised to incorporate the latest industry achievements and featuring:
Design methods for a variety of technologies from 1 micron to the current sub-micron regimes, along with complete design approaches for MOS, BiCMOS and Power MOSFETs.
New sections on ESD design rules, process technology effects, layout approaches, package effects and circuit simulations.
Guidance on the implementation of circuit protection measures for a range of I/O configurations.
Detailed coverage of ESD simulation stress models.
This unique reference provides the means to design protection circuits for a variety of applications and to diagnose and solve ESD problems in IC products. The coverage of state-of-the-art circuit design for ESD prevention will appeal to engineers and scientists working in the fields of IC and transistor design. Graduate students and researchers in device/circuit modeling and semiconductor reliability will appreciate this comprehensive coverage of ESD fundamentals.
Reviews:
Recently, I studied the CMOS layout. And I attended at the project about that. I fel the need to know the ESD phenomeon. At that time, I found this book. I understood this phenomenon and the ways to protect it easily. Because the book provided many graphs and photos and it treated the phenomenon in depth relatively. But this book didn't deal with the antenna diode issues. The importance of the antenna diode issues increases. So I hope that the authers will publish new edition.
