Our evaluation considered VM specification version 1.0b and Interface Specification 0.95a. We also examined the integration of SPDC with the Advanced Access Content System (AACS) as defined by the AACS public specification revision 0.90 (dated April 14, 2005), along with supplemental slides and materials. We first note several flaws in the current version of the AACS specification, and further ...

This paper proposed a silicon controller rectifier (SCR) based ESD protection device to protect low voltage ESD for integrated circuit. The proposed ESD protection device has low trigger voltage and high holding voltage compared with conventional SCR-based ESD protection devices. The proposed ESD protection circuit is verified and compared by TCAD simulation. This paper verified effective low v...

Two new electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection design by using only 1 × VDD low-voltage devices for mixedvoltage I/O buffer with 3 × VDD input tolerance are proposed. Two different special high-voltage-tolerant ESD detection circuits are designed with substrate-triggered technique to improve ESD protection efficiency of ESD clamp device. These two ESD detection circuits with different design ...

To mitigate the radio-frequency (RF) performance degradation caused by electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection device, low capacitance (low-C) design on ESD protection device is a solution. With the smaller layout area and small parasitic capacitance under the same ESD robustness, silicon-controlled rectifier (SCR) device has been used as an effective on-chip ESD protection device in RF ICs. I...

This paper presents a SCR-based ESD protection devices for I/O clamp and power rail clamp, respectably. These devices have a low trigger voltage and high holding voltage characteristics than conventional SCR device. These devices are fabricated by using 0.35um BCD (Bipolar-CMOS-DMOS) processes. These devices were validated using a TLP system. From the experimental results, the device for I/O ES...
