Understanding, modeling, and mitigating system-level ESD in integrated circuits
… models of ESD guns, and (iii) analytic models of rail-clamp circuits used for power-on ESD protection. Simulation models for two common ESD protection elements, diodes and silicon controlled rectifiers (SCR) are presented and evaluated, specifically with regard to the origins of poor voltage …

Failures caused by supply fluctuations during system-level ESD
… against ESD induced noise. In addition, the rail clamp, if not optimized, deteriorates the power integrity with its instability. The ESD-induced supply fluctuation may cause latch-up without careful attention to the well-bias scheme.

Detection of ESD-induced soft errors
IEC-61000-4-2 compliant ESD discharges are performed on a microcontroller. The effect of ESD-induced noise on a digital system having a workload is examined. UART interface present on-chip is used for memory and register readout. Hardware voltage monitors developed previously are included in the …
