Electrostatic discharge (ESD) is caused by the discharge of an excess or deficiency of electrons on one surface with respect to another surface or to ground. When a static charge is present on an ...

Electronic design automation (EDA) verification of electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection is a complex task. Different integrated circuit (IC) design companies use different ESD protection ...

Standards for specifying a chip’s ability to withstand electrostatic discharge (ESD) are changing – in some cases, getting tougher, and in others, easing up. ESD protection has been on a path from a ...

AUSTIN, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The Silicon Integration Initiative Compact Model Coalition is proud to announce the release of the ASM-ESD diode model, a new electrostatic discharge compact modeling ...

There are a number of solutions for connecting your do-it-yourself project to a computer. Serial ports are easy to use, even if you have to do so via a universal serial bus (USB). The advantage of ...

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection is an essential facet in the design and operation of modern integrated circuits (ICs). As electronic devices become increasingly miniaturised and complex, ...

ProTek Devices has introduced an ultra-low capacitance steering diode array that provides circuit protection against electrostatic discharge (ESD), electrical fast transients (EFT), and secondary ...
