  • Abstract
    This study presents for the first time ESD protection solutions in integrated silicon process technologies for the voltage range up to 600V. The ESD protection clamp is implemented using a NLDMOS-SCR type ESD device architecture. The study presents both reversible triggering I-V characteristics suitable for package level ESD protection as well as dependence of the ESD device characteristics upon the structure parameters and the state of a control electrode.
