Abstract

A VDD-to-VSS ESD clamp circuit is designed to provide the real whole-chip ESD protection for submicron CMOS IC's. The ESD-protection efficiency is experimentally verified to be dependent on the pin location of a chip. This whole-chip ESD protection design has been successfully implemented in a 0.8-μm CMOS IC product with a real pin-to-pin ESD protection of above 3 KV.
