Popis: | A new methodology for quantifying the effectiveness of CDM protection circuits and CDM robustness of I/O circuits is presented in this paper. This method, referred to as the vfTLP-V TH , consists of applying vfTLP stresses to test structures composed of the ESD protection and the device or circuit to be protected: a MOS device or a MOS inverter. The protected structures are used as monitors and shifts in their characteristics, such as MOS threshold voltage V TH and saturation current I DD , are used to probe device failure criteria. |
