  • Abstract
    A novel ESD protection implementation based on LIGBT component is presented for 0.35 mum Smart Power HV devices on SOI substrate. A Single Stage LIGBT was designed, characterized and simulated. SOA boundaries are investigated in TLP regime. ESD performances improvements achieved using LIGBT devices are highlighted and a comparison with NDRIFTMOS-based active clamps is presented.
