As semiconductor manufacturers introduce new wireline transmission devices built on smaller CMOS geometries, more circuit protection challenges are emerging. This article explores five frequently ...

These devices provide optimised protection for AC-coupled radio-frequency (RF) transmission lines against electrostatic discharge (ESD) events, surge currents and short circuit conditions. These ...

It provides a clear insight into the integration of ESD protection networks from a generalist perspective, followed by examples in specific technologies, circuits, and chips.

Finally, for ESD protection, circuit protection products such as silicon ESD (SESD) devices can be placed on the USB data lines.

To connect the miniature world of integrated circuits like a CPU with the outside world, a number of physical connections ...

Silicon protection arrays are multi-channel devices which feature is very low clamping voltage which allows them to protect even the most sensitive circuits. Polymeric ESD suppressors are the newest ...

We’re used to interfaces such as I2C and one-wire as easy ways to hook up sensors and other peripherals to microcontrollers. While they’re fine within the confines of a small project, ...

Beware of misleading marketing specifications where vendors are increasing their “integrated ESD” rating and confusing system designers but advising that their integrated circuits do not require ...

Although protective elements are effective when properly implemented, designing ESD-resistant silicon on the latest process nodes is increasingly challenging. Indeed, engineers pack billions of ...
