TOKYO - Thursday, June 16th 2016 [ME NewsWire]
(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Toshiba Corporation (TOKYO:6502) has developed an electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection device for analog power semiconductor application, fabricated with advanced 0.13μm process technology, that optimizes the structure of transistor and significantly improves ESD characteristics. ESD protection is much more robust, up four times, and the standard deviation is only 1/12 that of the conventional structure. Analysis of 3D simulations has also allowed Toshiba to identify a mechanism for optimizing transistor structure to boost ESD robustness. Toshiba announced these advances at “ISPSD2016”, the international semiconductor symposium held in Czech on June 14, 2016.
Injections of ESD surges, whether from the human body or equipment, have the potential to destroy semiconductor devices, as ESD current flows cause local temperature increases inside silicon. ESD protection devices are required t
