Abstract :
This paper studies the correlation between the robustness level measured after a high current Transmission Line Pulse (TLP) test and the ruggedness obtained after gun stress used for system level tests. A relation has been confirmed using stand-alone ESD structures and commercial products using different technologies. A linear trend can be extracted depending on the R, C module of the gun. Measurement results will be detailed and discussed.
