Abstract

In power rail, electrostatic discharge (ESD) is one of the assured issues to be faced. This paper intended to have a voltage gain inverter-based response technology for power rail ESD protection. This paper proposes a power MOSFET to discharge ESD current with 10 ns RC time constant for triggering and transmission gate based clamp is to keep it on until ESD event, which is 28% more efficient than the conventional clamp. The proposed clamp can endure 4500V of HBM (Human Body Model) pulse and also suitable for Charged-Device Model (CDM) protection. Here, LTspice software is used to check out the ESD performance of the transmission gate-based clamp.
