Abstract :
Transient behaviors of poly-bound diode subject to fast ESD events such as the Charged Device Model (CDM) are characterized using pulses generated by the very-fast transmission line pulsing (VFTLP) tester. The effects of changing diode´s dimension parameters on the overshoot voltage and turn-on time are studied. The correlation between the poly-bound diode failure and poly-gate configuration under the VFTLP stress is also investigated.
