The Design Engineer’s Handbook to ESD Protection

Learn about the concepts of ESD protection testing and simulation for modern interfaces.

Due to miniaturization, the high-speed interfaces often used in mobile communication and computing devices now experience increased sensitivity to electrostatic discharges (ESD) strikes and surge events. This makes the design of robust I/O structures more sophisticated, and advanced external ESD protection a requirement. ESD protection is achieved by low-clamping voltages, low-dynamic resistance and low-parasitic impedances inside the package technology. 

It’s now a crucial part of electronic design to have a suitable selection of external protection devices as well as a proper system design. This includes:

  • The proper placement of ESD protection and the SoC to help dissipate surge energy in the protection device. 
  • The use of common mode filters along with modern ESD protection technology to further improve system-level robustness.

Nexperia provides a full portfolio of protection products to ensure robust and safe devices, as well as to help eliminate field returns in all application areas. Learn more about the concepts of ESD protection testing and simulation for modern interfaces in this white paper from Nexperia.
