On-Chip Electro-Static Discharge (ESD) Protection for Radio-Frequency Integrated Circuits by Qiang Cui,Juin J. Liou,Jean-Jacques Hajjar,Javier Salcedo,Yuanzhong Zhou,Parthasarathy Srivatsan Pdf

This book enables readers to design effective ESD protection solutions for all mainstream RF fabrication processes (GaAs pHEMT, SiGe HBT, CMOS). The new techniques introduced by the authors have much higher protection levels and much lower parasitic effects than those of existing ESD protection devices. The authors describe in detail the ESD phenomenon, as well as ESD protection fundamentals, standards, test equipment, and basic design strategies. Readers will benefit from realistic case studies of ESD protection for RFICs and will learn to increase significantly modern RFICs’ ESD safety level, while maximizing RF performance.

Electrostatic Discharge Protection by Juin J. Liou Pdf

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) is one of the most prevalent threats to electronic components. In an ESD event, a finite amount of charge is transferred from one object (i.e., human body) to another (i.e., microchip). This process can result in a very high current passing through the microchip within a very short period of time. Thus, more than 35 percent of single-event chip damages can be attributed to ESD events, and designing ESD structures to protect integrated circuits against the ESD stresses is a high priority in the semiconductor industry. Electrostatic Discharge Protection: Advances and Applications delivers timely coverage of component- and system-level ESD protection for semiconductor devices and integrated circuits. Bringing together contributions from internationally respected researchers and engineers with expertise in ESD design, optimization, modeling, simulation, and characterization, this book bridges the gap between theory and practice to offer valuable insight into the state of the art of ESD protection. Amply illustrated with tables, figures, and case studies, the text: Instills a deeper understanding of ESD events and ESD protection design principles Examines vital processes including Si CMOS, Si BCD, Si SOI, and GaN technologies Addresses important aspects pertinent to the modeling and simulation of ESD protection solutions Electrostatic Discharge Protection: Advances and Applications provides a single source for cutting-edge information vital to the research and development of effective, robust ESD protection solutions for semiconductor devices and integrated circuits.

ESD Design Challenges and Strategies in Deeply-scaled Integrated Circuits by Shuqing Cao Pdf

It is the main objective of this work to address the scaling and design challenges of ESD protection in deeply scaled technologies. First, the thesis introduces the on-chip ESD events, the scaling and design challenges, and the nomenclatures necessary for later chapters. The ESD design window and the I/O schematics for both rail clamping and local clamping ESD schemes are illustrated. Then, the thesis delves into the investigation of the input and output driver devices and examines their robustness under ESD. The input driver's oxide breakdown levels are evaluated in deeply scaled technologies. The output driver's trigger and breakdown voltages are improved appreciably by applying circuit and device design techniques. The ESD device sections first discuss rail-based clamping, a widely used protection scheme. Two diode-based devices, namely the gated diode and substrate diode, are investigated in detail with SOI test structures. Characterization is based on DC current-voltage (I-V), Very Fast Transmission Line Pulse (VF-TLP), capacitance, and leakage measurements. Improvements in performance are realized. Technology computer aided design (TCAD) simulations help understand the physical effects and design tradeoffs. Then, the following section focuses on the local clamping scheme. Two devices, the field-effect diode (FED) and the double-well FED (DWFED), are developed and optimized in an SOI technology. Trigger circuits are designed to improve the turn-on speed. The advantages of local clamping is highlighted and compared with the rail-based clamping. The results show that the FED is a suitable option for power clamping applications and the DWFED is most suitable for pad-based local clamping. The thesis presents an ESD protection design methodology, which takes advantage of the results and techniques from pervious chapters and put each element into a useful format. Based on the correlation of package level and in-lab test results, a design process based on CDM target definition and device optimization, discharge path analysis, parasitic minimization, I/O data rate estimation and finally ESD and performance characterization is used sequentially to systematically realize the overall design goals.
