    Abstract

    Different types of board-level noise filter networks are evaluated for their effectiveness to improve the immunity of CMOS ICs against transient-induced latchup (TLU) under system-level electrostatic discharge (ESD) test. By choosing proper components in each noise filter network, the TLU immunity of CMOS ICs can be greatly improved. All the experimental evaluations have been verified with the SCR test structures and the ring oscillator fabricated in a 0.25-μm CMOS technology. Some of such board-level solutions can be further integrated into the chip design to effectively improve TLU immunity of CMOS IC products.
