Abstract
Designing for Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) robustness is a
critical requirement for Integrated Circuits (ICs) since ESD
voltages as low as the Gate Oxide breakdown can damage an IC.
This is especially true for the newer lower Geometry Processes
where the Gate Oxide breakdowns are reducing all the time. ESD
Protection for Analogue or mixed signal parts is an even greater
challenge due to the various requirements of analogue pins e.g.
low capacitance, low leakage, high voltage etc. Typically this
requires the development of specific ESD Cells for the various pin
applications. This paper covers overall Protection schemes for
both Digital & Analogue parts, with particular focus on the ESD
requirements for Analogue pins and some case studies to hi-light
some of the issues typically encountered with ESD Design.
