Abstract
A newly designed on-chip voltage monitor circuit (VM) is capable of recording for subsequent readout the peak voltage reached at internal nodes during ESD events. Real-time voltage probing techniques during wafer-level CDM are verified using VMs; guidelines are discussed for reducing the impact of probing on current flow.
