Zusammenfassung: | CDM protection techniques for two important circuits are developed. In the first protection dummy logic circuits are added for separated small power domains. The dummy logic circuit can assist parallel-connected ESD protection devices to discharge CDM current at the initial discharge phase of the CDM event. The second protection technique for input gate protection is to use the stack-structured input circuits by employing dual diode ESD protection method. Also, a new CDM TEG chip design that can be directly evaluated by CDM zapping test is presented. |
