The proposed EGDTSCR is constructed by adding two gated diodes into a conventional ESD device called the modified lateral silicon-controlled rectifier (MLSCR). With the shunting effect of the surface gated diode path, the proposed EGDTSCR, with a width of 50 μm, exhibits a higher failure current (i.e., 3.82 A) as well as a higher holding voltage (i.e., 10.21 V) than the MLSCR.展开更多

Combined with the device simulation, a mathematical model is built to get a more in-depth insight into this phenomenon. The theoretical studies are verified by the transmission-line-pulsing (TLP) test results of the modified DTSCR structure, which is realized in a 65-nm complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) process. The detailed analysis of the physical mechanism is used to provide predictions as the DTSCR-based protection scheme is required. In addition, a method is also presented to achieve the tradeoff between the leakage and trigger voltage in DTSCR.展开更多

An embedded gated-Pi N junction structure is employed to reduce the diode string leakage current to 13 n A/μm in a temperature range from 25°C to 85°C. To provide the effective electrostatic discharge(ESD) protection in multi-voltage power supply, the triggering voltage of the novel device can be adjusted through redistributing parasitic resistance instead of changing the stacked diode number.展开更多
