The state-of-the-art in robustness design and analysis for ESD (electrostatic discharge) always lags our ability to characterize and qualify a device or system. The ESD Association, IEC, JEDEC, and ...

Over-designing ESD protection circuits has other drawbacks, such as degraded performance due to additional capacitance and reduced signal-to-noise ratios. When designs have low margins, designers may ...

Explore the crucial role of static dischargers on airplanes in this insightful video. Understand how these essential aerospace engineering components help in safely dissipating static electricity, ...

ESD or electro-static discharge induced field failures for integrated circuits (IC) has always been an challenge. Literature survey indicates that as high as 35% of total chip field failures are ESD ...

Static analysis works on source code and tries to identify errors based on what it can tell about the program. For example, it can highlight “dead code” that will never execute.

Semantics-driven static analysis is being proposed by a group of researchers as way to ensure that Unix, Linux, and macOS shell programs are safe, bug-free, and work as expected. However, the ...

Zuken is working with David Pommerenke, an associate professor at the University of Missouri at Rolla, to develop algorithms that will check the static sensitivity of electronic circuits, Buecker said ...
