Obviously, electrostatic discharge (ESD) is one of many critical considerations in almost every design project. Equally obvious is the fact that there is no shortage of solutions to keep ESD at bay.

Static electricity can be defined as a stationary charge that builds up on the surface of a material. The interaction between stationary charges, known as electrostatics, leads to two key problems: ...

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) issues in integrated circuit (IC) chip designs have become more critical at advanced semiconductor process nodes, due to shrinking transistor dimensions and oxide layer ...

As a designer or verification engineer, you’re fighting the effects of electrostatic discharge (ESD) in your integrated circuit (IC) designs all the time. ESD is one of those frustrating issues that ...
