A bladeless turbine design converts the static electricity naturally generated by dust particles in compressed air into ...

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection is an essential facet in the design and operation of modern integrated circuits (ICs). As electronic devices become increasingly miniaturised and complex, ...

Many electronic components are sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESD). A static charge is an unbalanced electrical charge at rest. An electrostatic discharge is created when insulator surfaces rub ...

As natural phenomena go, static electricity seems less cataclysmic than an earthquake or a tornado. An annoyance, maybe -- socks clinging together, flyaway hair, or the zap felt after shuffling across ...

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection remains a critical facet in the design and fabrication of CMOS integrated circuits. With the continuing downscaling of device dimensions and the increasing ...

ICs subjected to electrostatic discharge (ESD) stress have distinct failure signatures. High currents can melt different regions of the semiconductor structure (ESD-HBM, or human body model), while ...

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) is defined as “the sudden and momentary electric current that flows between two objects at different electrical potentials.” ESD causes equipment failure and network ...

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) issues in integrated circuit (IC) chip designs have become more critical at advanced semiconductor process nodes, due to shrinking transistor dimensions and oxide layer ...

TOBYHANNA ARMY DEPOT, Pa. - Protecting state-of-the-art electronics equipment from the damaging effects of electrostatic discharge is a top priority here. Military members count on Tobyhanna employees ...

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection is critical at advanced nodes to safeguard designs against effects intensified by shrinking transistor dimensions and oxide layer thicknesses. On the other ...
