(Ebook) Practical ESD Protection Design by Wang, Albert ISBN 9781119850403, 1119850401

An authoritative single-volume reference on the design and testing of electrostatic discharge (ESD) structures 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. Based on the author’s decades of design, teaching, and research experience, Practical ESD Protection Design: Features numerous real-world examples of electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection designs and skills Describes the design methodology for high-performance mixed-signal ICs and broadband radio-frequency (RF) ICs Discusses CAD-based ESD protection design using existing tools such as Technology Computer-Aided Design (TCAD) and SPICE simulation Addresses new ESD CAD algorithms and tools for full-chip ESD physical design verification Explores the disruptive future outlook of ESD protection 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.
