Substrate-triggered SCR device for on-chip ESD protection in fully silicided sub-0.25-μm CMOS process.

Substrate-triggered SCR device for on-chip ESD protection in fully silicided sub-0.25-μm CMOS process.

The turn-on mechanism of a silicon-controlled rectifier (SCR) device is essentially a current triggering event. While a current is applied to the base or substrate of the SCR device, it can be quickly triggered into its latching state. In this paper, a novel design concept to turn on the SCR device...
