摘要: An area-efficient power-rail electrostatic discharge (ESD) clamp circuit with silicon-controlled rectifier (SCR) as main ESD clamp device has been proposed and verified in a 65nm CMOS process. By modifying the layout structure, the ESD-transient detection circuit can be totally embedded in the SCR device. From the measured results, the proposed power-rail ESD clamp circuit with SCR width of 45 mu m can achieve 7kV human-body-model (HBM) and 350V machinemodel (MM) ESD levels under the ESD stress event, while consuming the standby leakage current in the order of nanoampere at room temperature under the normal circuit operating condition with 1V bias.
