Abstract
It is shown that electrical fast transients (EFT) on the AC power line can result in electrical overstress (EOS) damage to a Class 0 ESD sensitive device connected to the output of AC powered equipment. A methodology for measuring EFT and EOS transients is described and simulations are used to understand coupling mechanisms. Finally, several techniques for reduction of the EOS transient are tested and analyzed.
