ESD protection design methodology

Objective

To gain insight in ESD-problems and to investigate possible design options for a well-established smart power technology, as well as design and processing options for an advanced VSLI technology with the aim of a robust ESD performance;

To investigate and optimize the behaviour of protection devices under different ESD stress models, including Human-Body Model and Charged Device Model,

To provide basic physical models that are still lacking and that are relevant for ESD-modelling,

To develop respective TCAD code and make it commercially available.

A design methodology will be developed that employs device and circuit simulators to devise and to optimize integrated circuit ESD protection structures. The design methodology for production will change from the current largely-empirical approach, based on extensive destructive testing, to TCAD-guided critical parameter evaluation, validated by a relatively small number of specific high current measurements.

Fields of science (EuroSciVoc)

CORDIS classifies projects with EuroSciVoc, a multilingual taxonomy of fields of science, through a semi-automatic process based on NLP techniques. See: The European Science Vocabulary.

Programme(s)

Multi-annual funding programmes that define the EU’s priorities for research and innovation.

Topic(s)

Calls for proposals are divided into topics. A topic defines a specific subject or area for which applicants can submit proposals. The description of a topic comprises its specific scope and the expected impact of the funded project.

Call for proposal

Procedure for inviting applicants to submit project proposals, with the aim of receiving EU funding.
