It is used to protect an IC from excessive voltage (e.g., ESD) higher than the rated withstand voltage that enters a board via an externally exposed port such as a USB port. ESD protection diodes are also called transient voltage suppressor (TVS) diodes. A slight differ...
The article evaluates several electronic devices including the MAX4895E VGA-port protector from Maxim Integrated Products Inc., the Pico-Guard XS devices from California Micro Devices Corp., and the ESDI IN5.0ST5G and ESDI IB5.0ST5G electrostatic discharge protection from On Semiconductor Corp.Dir...
An ESD protection diode is a type of Zener diode. When a diode is reverse-biased, little current flows from cathode to anode. However, when the reverse bias exceeds a certain point (called the reverse breakdown voltage), the reverse current suddenly increases. As the reverse bias ...
To meet ESD protection requirements, take the following measures: Popularize the importance of ESD prevention. Wear ESD shoes and ESD clothing before entering the TR. Use ESD tools such as ESD wrist straps, ESD tweezers, and extraction tools when operating on the server. Lay a raised floor in...

does not actually control the ESD phenomenon per se, but pertains to making devices moreresistantto ESD damage.This involves incorporating ESD protection cells in the design of the IC, and the use of physically robust features that can withstand the high current brought about by an ESD event. ...
Short for electrostatic discharge, ESD is the sudden release of static electricity that occurs when two objects with different charges come into contact or close proximity with one another. For an ESD
ESD Design Strategies Circuit designers utilize various strategies to make devices more robust against the effects of ESD: Protection diodes– Adds diodes to clamp pin voltages during ESD. Guard rings– Routes conductive rings around I/O pins on the silicon die to steer current from ESD strikes....
Electrostatic discharges can occur without warning. Prevention requiresunderstanding the environmentin which an electronic device is manufactured, handled and used, and taking measures to reduce the likelihood of an event. Electronics manufacturers incorporate various ESD protection measures to prevent issues ...
Electrostatic Discharge is the Discharge of the human body in the metallic part of the device; whenever the human body touches the device, they will get a shock. It could permanently damage the device, so that this test will check the protection and immunity against ESD. ...
