Abstract :
Dealing with microelectronic industry, the Electrostatic Discharge has a significant importance regarding the failures related to the solid state devices. The paper is focused on software applications concerning the effects of electrostatic discharges on MOSFET integrated circuitry, using a dedicated computational program. We considered in our approach, some different electronic components with electrostatic discharge protective properties. Our research is useful in electronic domain to select the most adequate electronic equipments, in order to treat and reduce the effects of electrostatic discharges.
