Abstract :
In this Invited Paper, an overview of electrostatic discharge (ESD) and latchup challenges in analog and power applications will be discussed. Analog and power technologies continue to be a challenge for electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection and latchup. Different aspects of ESD and latchup development from technology, application spaces, device design, analog and power circuits, mixed signal issues, models, testing, and computer aided design (CAD) issues will be addressed.
