Abstract

A novel transmission gate switch is proposed to effectively replace electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection resistors in CMOS I/O pads. The proposed circuit exhibits a very low on resistance, under normal operation, and a very high off resistance, in the case of ESD stresses. A triple-well CMOS implementation guarantees RF operation and enhanced ESD reliability.
