A simple and effective ESD protection structure is proposed for the high-voltage-tolerant I/O pad. It can tolerate a voltage higher than the power supply voltage without the leakage current caused by ...

ESD is a well-known reliability aspect in Si technologies, but GaAs devices are more susceptible to ESD damage than the silicon devices. In this study, the ESD survivability of the InGaP HBT ...

Hybrid circuit protection devices, using a combination of technologies, provide better protection for industrial Ethernet interfaces.

TE Connectivity’s Circuit Protection group addressed the problem by developing a family of silicon ESD (SESD) devices with ±20-kV contact and ±22-kV air discharge ratings, which ...
