“This paper analyzes TCAD ESD simulation for both HBM zapping using real-world HBM ESD waveforms as stimuli and TLP testing using square wave TLP pulse trains as stimuli. It concludes that TCAD ESD ...

An electrostatic discharge (ESD) from a person touching an electronic device or system can produce thousands of volts and several amperes, which can easily damage or destroy an integrated circuit (IC) ...

ECN magazine has a good article about transmission line pulse testing to establish ESD resistance of your circuits. This is analogous to time domain reflectometry that I wrote about in a feature ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) One of the most pervasive reliability problems facing the computer chip industry is ESD (electrostatic discharging) failure caused by the rapid, spontaneous transfer of ...
