Description
John Wiley Electrical Overstress (Eos): Devices, Circuits, And Systems by Voldman
Electrical Overstress (EOS) continues to impact semiconductor manufacturing, semiconductor components and systems as technologies scale from micro– to nano–electronics. This bookteaches the fundamentals of electrical overstress and how to minimize and mitigate EOS failures. The text provides a clear picture of EOS phenomena, EOS origins, EOS sources, EOS physics, EOS failure mechanisms, and EOS on–chip and system design. It provides an illuminating insight into the sources of EOS in manufacturing, integration of on–chip, and system level EOS protection networks, followed by examples in specific technologies, circuits, and chips. The book is unique in covering the EOS manufacturing issues from on–chip design and electronic design automation to factory–level EOS program management in today s modern world. Electrical Overstress (EOS): Devices, Circuits and Systems is a continuation of the author s series of books on ESD protection. It is an essential reference and a useful insight into the issues that confront modern technology as we enter the nano–electronic era.
