The most commonly used ESD test models are the Human Body Model (HBM) and the Charged Device Model (CDM). Both models assess the ESD sensitivity of a device, however due to the rapid growth in ...

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) is caused by the discharge of an excess or deficiency of electrons on one surface with respect to another surface or to ground. When a static charge is present on an ...

We use a Verifier CDM System and a nonsocketed, dead-bug, field-induced method outlined in the ESD Association standard. Atmospheric aspects of the environment such as humidity, light, and dust ...

ESD verification has become a challenging, but vital, task for the designer community. The dramatic increase in the number of power domains and power modes at the SoC level exacerbates the risk of ...

layout based full-chip analysis of ESD events such as Human Body Model (HBM), Machine Model (MM) and Charged Device Model (CDM) ESD charging or discharging is a full-chip verification challenge.

Two industry standards are widely used to model these events: the human body model (HBM) and the charged device model (CDM) [1]. Figure 1 shows the typical discharge waveforms associated with each ...

Charged Device Model (CDM) simulates a situation in a manufacturing environment where the IC is tribo-electrically charged in a handler, for example, and then discharged upon contact with a grounded ...
