Titelbeschreibung

This Book and Simulation Software Bundle Project Dear Reader, this book project brings to you a unique study tool for ESD protection solutions used in analog-integrated circuit (IC) design. Quick-start learning is combined with in-depth understanding for the whole spectrum of cro- disciplinary knowledge required to excel in the ESD ?eld. The chapters cover technical material from elementary semiconductor structure and device levels up to complex analog circuit design examples and case studies. The book project provides two different options for learning the material. The printed material can be studied as any regular technical textbook. At the same time, another option adds parallel exercise using the trial version of a complementary commercial simulation tool with prepared simulation examples. Combination of the textbook material with numerical simulation experience presents a unique opportunity to gain a level of expertise that is hard to achieve otherwise. The book is bundled with simpli?ed trial version of commercial mixed- TM mode simulation software from Angstrom Design Automation. The DECIMM (Device Circuit Mixed-Mode) simulator tool and complementary to the book s- ulation examples can be downloaded from www.analogesd.com. The simulation examples prepared by the authors support the speci?c examples discussed across the book chapters. A key idea behind this project is to provide an opportunity to not only study the book material but also gain a much deeper understanding of the subject by direct experience through practical simulation examples.

Autorenportrait

Dr. Vladislav Vashchenko received MS, Engineer-Physicist (1986) followed by “Ph.D. in Physics of Semiconductors” (1990) from Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology for the study of self-organization phenomena in semiconductor structures under breakdown. Since 1984 he was working in reliability department of State Research Institute “Pulsar” (Moscow) occupying positions from the student intern to head of laboratory. In 1997 he was awarded the “Doctor of Science in Microelectronics” degree for the cycle of studies and new solutions of the reliability problems in power GaAs MESFET’s, microwave silicon devices and the developed test methods. In the period 1995-1997 he managed the work on contracts for high reliability components for Russian Space Agency, commercial and military customers. In 2000 he joined Advanced Process Development Group in National Semiconductor Corp. to work on design of the ESD protection solutions for analog products. Currently he is leader and manager of R&D group responsible for ESD development for new processes and products. His current research interests are mainly focused on the power devices, device level reliability, ESD solutions, physical process and device simulation for ESD. His studies are widely presented in major device research forums. He author of 108 U.S. patents and over 80 research and review papers in the fields of reliability and ESD.

Back cover copy

ESD Design for Analog Circuits covers many challenging topics related to analog circuit design for both ESD device and ESD circuits at the network level.

The chapters cover technical material on seven different hierarchical levels starting from elementary semiconductor structures, ESD device and clamp levels up to ESD protection network design followed by complex case studies for analog circuit design examples. Included is an extensive discussion of ESD design aspects for analog design for signal path products covering both major principles and specific case studies for DC-DC buck/boost converters, level shifters, digital-analog converters, high speed and precision power amplifiers, interface applications and system level protection.

At the same time, the authors introduce a novel companion study tool for ESD protection solutions. Quick-start learning is combined with in-depth understanding for the whole spectrum of cross-disciplinary knowledge needed for excelling in the ESD field. The material combines textbook material with optional numerical simulation experience. Instructions for obtaining the simulation examples and trial version of DECIMMTM software can be found on the book's companion website www.analogesd.com. The simulation examples prepared by the authors support the specific examples discussed across the book chapters.

ESD Design for Analog Circuits is a useful reference for device engineers and circuit designers addressing Analog IC Design problems.
