Electrostatic discharge (ESD) is caused by the discharge of an excess or deficiency of electrons on one surface with respect to another surface or to ground. When a static charge is present on an ...

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) issues in integrated circuit (IC) chip designs have become more critical at advanced semiconductor process nodes, due to shrinking transistor dimensions and oxide layer ...

This application note aims to assist a designer who uses Liquid Crystal Displays (LCD) in a product, to implement design measures in order to optimize EMI and ESD robustness of LCDs and LCD drivers.

We all have hands on experience with electrostatic discharge (ESD), even if it’s just from walking across a carpet and touching something metal, releasing static electricity buildup in one brief ...

Fig 1. Comparison of a traditional ESD protection design methodology and the PicoGuard XS architecture shows how the latter can provide matched inductance. Fig 2. In a traditional ESD device, the ...

Siemens EDA has introduced the next-generation in electronic systems design (ESD) at the Siemens EDA PCB Forum 2024, Bangalore. The goals are to keep pace with accelerating innovation, and speed up ...
