ESD training and consultancy

We share what 50+ man-years of industry and academic ESD experience has taught us, in a program tuned to your needs.

Training for IC professionals

Courses are built around the problems your team is solving, from device physics to simulation and qualification.

ESD device physics and failure modes
ESD circuit design for digital, analog and RF blocks and for full ICs
ESD EDA tools: TCAD, circuit models and parameter extraction, ESD circuit simulation
ESD product troubleshooting and qualification methodologies

Lightning over a city, a person with static-charged hair, and a finger sparking to a circuit board — ESD is everywhere. A lightning strike lasts about 0.1 s at around 100 million volts. A human-body discharge lasts about 100 ns at around 10 000 V.

ESD design flow from product definition through design to qualification — The ESD development flow we help teams adopt, mapped to the IC product timeline.

Consultancy for your ESD program

We can define and execute complex ESD projects end to end: from structure design and circuit definition to full-chip verification and troubleshooting. We can also help you take ESD in-house.

Optimize your designs and develop in-house ESD design expertise
Define in-house ESD design and verification flows
Build your own ESD TLP test system
Develop custom on-chip ESD reliability solutions
