Abstract :
The electrostatic discharge (ESD) sensitivity of ICs with respect to the charged-device model (CDM) is strongly dependent on the IC package, the substrate resistivity, and the effectiveness of the ESD protection network. This paper presents a case study of predictive CDM circuit simulation method based on the tester, package, and full IC modeling approach.
