A new static power clamp circuit integrated with input ESD protection is proposed in this paper. By skillfully incorporating traditional input ESD protection, the proposed circuit replaces the protection resistor by the active switch and merging the signal control circuit into trigger circuit of static power clamp. The proposed circuit is a whole-chip ESD protection scheme that has a low leakage and...
A new reliable Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) power-rail clamp circuit has been proposed in this paper. The new circuit structure has achieved good results in reducing leakage current, anti-false triggering, increasing discharge transistor's turn on time. During the ESD event, the proposed circuit has a discharge time of 755.22ns, which is about 6.74 times that of conventional R-C power-rail clamp...
This work presents a novel power-rail electrostatic discharge (ESD) clamp circuit for nanoscale applications. By skillfully incorporating transient and static ESD detection mechanisms into its detection circuit, the proposed circuit achieves a wide range of adjustable triggering voltage (Ft1) while maintaining low standby leakage current (Ileak). Besides, the proposed circuit achieves significantly-improved...
A novel multi-RC-triggered power clamp circuit is proposed in this paper. Effective capacitances of capacitors are multiplied by current mirrors and a modified asymmetric phase inverter is employed in the proposed circuit. Simulation and test results verify that the proposed circuit maintains enhanced ESD protection robustness with reduced chip-area.
