Abstract: A new electro-thermal model of avalanching silicon junctions subject to the abrupt and large currents of electro-static-discharge (ESD) phenomenon is presented. A reliable model of the avalanching junction is the core element for accurate CAD-based analysis of ESD failures. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
