We’ve all experienced the effect of electrostatic discharge at some point in our lives, the most common case being a tingling sensation one feels after touching a door knob or any metal surface. When ...

With the pervasiveness of power management techniques like clock gating and power gating, transient power is on the rise, accompanied by the requirement to closely examine a system for such phenomenon ...

Electronic system designs often include transient protection to ensure system robustness for electrostatic discharge (ESD) events. Adding external ESD protection without compromising system I/O speed, ...

•ESD protectors with low dynamic resistance won’t necessarily protect circuits. •Most damage is caused within the first nanosecond of an ESD event. •The ESD protector should set as close as possible ...
