摘要 To accurately evaluate the immunity of CMOS ICs against transient-induced latch-up (TLU) under the system-level electrostatic discharge (ESD) test for electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) regulation, an efficient component-level TLU measurement setup with bipolar (underdamped sinusoidal) trigger is developed in this paper. A current-blocking diode and a currentlimiting resistance, which are generally suggested to be used in the TLU measurement setup with bipolar trigger, are investigated for their impacts to both the bipolar trigger waveforms and the TLU immunity of the device under test (DUT). All the experimental results have been successfully verified with device simulation. Finally, a TLU measurement setup without a current-blocking diode but with a small current-limiting resistance, which can accurately evaluate the TLU immunity of CMOS ICs with neither overestimation nor electrical-over-stress damage to the DUT during the TLU test, is suggested. The suggested measurement setup has been verified with silicon-controlled-rectifier test structures and real circuitry (ring oscillator) fabricated in 0.25-μm CMOS technology.
