The sheer volume of automotive electronics in today’s cars is dramatically driving up the transmission requirements and data payload on automotive networks, writes Lukas Droemer of Nexperia. To take ...
Electro static discharge (ESD) poses a real threat to product quality, and is di cult to spot. ESD standards are continuously updated to keep pace with changes in technology and new test equipment ...
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection is critical at advanced nodes to safeguard designs against effects intensified by shrinking transistor dimensions and oxide layer thicknesses. On the other ...
•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 ...
Protection against ESD events (commonly referred to as ESD robustness) is an extremely important aspect of integrated circuit (IC) design and verification, including 2.5/3D designs. ESD events cause ...
Fig 1. Comparison of a traditional ESD protection design methodology and the PicoGuard XS architecture shows how the latter can provide matched inductance. Fig 2. In a traditional ESD device, the ...
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage sensitive electronic components in several ways. First, the high voltage may cause internal damage and the rapid rise in temperature puts delicate electronics ...
