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

In this paper, a simple circuit is incorporated in a 650V E-mode GaN HEMT process technology to protect all terminals against ESD stress from any direction. Even in the worst case, with the gate ...

In this two-stage ESD protection circuit, there are two transistors that help short the positive high-voltage ESD transient to ground, while the diodes take care of negative excursions.

Finally this NMOS ESD robustness is doubled by changing only one mask (without introducing any process or design change). The change offers potential for all NMOS transistors used in the same ...
