  • Abstract
    Anomalous NLDMOS behavior under ESD stresses is investigated. Negative MM test results show failures at low stress voltage and local distributions of destruction spots. TCAD simulations clarified that the reverse recovery current during the MM stress causes parasitic NPN turn-on and effectively lowers the trigger voltage (Vt1).
