Effects of the ESD protections in the behaviour of a 2.4 GHz RF transceiver: problems and solutions

This paper identifies the main problems related to the Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) in submicron CMOS processes. The mitigation of this problem is made with the use of protections, in order to avoid the destruction of the internal and nput/output circuits connected to the bondingpads. In the 2.4 GH...
