Abstract :
An approach towards evaluating the ESD performance of high-speed interfaces is presented. By applying ESD stress to powered USB 3.0 interfaces the propagation of very short ESD pulses is investigated. Soft failures caused by TLP stress are put into relation to hard failure thresholds of the unpowered devices as well as soft failures induced by IEC 61000-4-2 pulses.
