  • Abstract
    The demand for continuous improvements in ESD design and simulations brings the need of new and more accurate scalable models. For the SCR (silicon controlled rectifier), one of the most efficient ESD protection device, a scalability study was carried out, based on a previously developed model that emphasizes a tight relation between its equations and the actual physical phenomena.
