  • Abstract
    On-chip ESD protection for semiconductor chips with mixed-voltage interface applications and internal multiple power bus architecture is discussed. ESD robustness in shallow trench isolation 0.50- and 0.25-μm channel-length CMOS technologies is demonstrated using novel ESD structures
