Proceedings ArticleDOI
Analysis of snubber-clamped diode-string mixed voltage interface ESD protection network for advanced microprocessors
Steven H. Voldman,Gianfranco Gerosa,Vaughn P. Gross,Nicholas Dickson,Stephen S. Furkay,James A. Slinkman +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, a snubber-clamped diode-string ESD protection circuit for mixed voltage interface microprocessor applications is described, and an analytical failure model is presented for shallow trench isolation (STI) and LOCOS CMOS technologies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Scaling, optimization and design considerations of electrostatic discharge protection circuits in CMOS technology
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of scaling on electrostatic discharge (ESD) robustness in 1.2 to 0.25 μm channel length CMOS technologies is explored for ESD protection circuits and MOSFET structures.
PatentDOI
Suppression of particle generation in a modified clean room corona air ionizer
TL;DR: In this paper, a clean non-hydrogen-containing dry gas flows through the corona points of a clean room corona air ionizer in order to suppress the generation of particles.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Electrostatic discharge protection in silicon-on-insulator technology
Steven H. Voldman,David T. Hui,L. Warriner,D. Young,Robert Russell Williams,J. Howard,Vaughn P. Gross,Werner A. Rausch,E. Leobangdung,Melanie J. Sherony,N. Rohrer,Chekib Akrout,Fariborz Assaderaghi,Ghavam G. Shahidi +13 more
TL;DR: Shahidi et al. as discussed by the authors demonstrated that excellent ESD protection levels are achievable in silicon-on-insulator (SOI) chips with no additional masking steps, process implants, costs or ESD design area.
Journal ArticleDOI
