6 concepts to replace dual diode ESD protection
When the conventional dual diode based ESD protection is causing problems ESD designers can use one of these 6 concepts.
5 reasons why IoT chips need custom ESD protection
Internet of Things (IoT) applications are powered by semiconductor devices. Despite the use of mature process nodes IoT chips cannot use convention ESD protection.
3 problems with diode based ESD protection
The conventional dual diode approach is used a lot as a simple ESD protection solution for all types of interfaces. However sometimes it causes issues.
