Abstract:Reducing trigger voltage has always been a research hotspot in low-voltage electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection applications for integrated circuit. Thus, a novel low trigger voltage low leakage silicon-controlled rectifier (LTVLLSCR) for low-voltage ESD protection has been proposed. The proposed device uses a PMOS connected with the SCR to reduce the trigger voltage and the PMOS gate can be applied with the supply voltage to further reduce the trigger voltage and the leakage current. The operating princip… Show more
