This article reviews some of the ESD protection design challenges when designing in a FinFET technology and give an outlook on the successors of FinFET.

How is the proper ESD Protection Cell chosen for a particular design application?

The electronic industry has embraced simulation to address several complex design challenges, but reliability is still mostly dealt with best design practices and tested with prototypes. In this article, we present how modeling and simulation approaches can help designers perform virtual prototyping and uncover reliability issues especially EOS/ESD before going for physical prototypes.

As the global market for LED horticultural luminaires grows, it is important for the industry to assess these products for safety and performance considerations unique to their controlled indoor agricultural environments. The industry is responding by introducing standards and programs with a variety of requirements.

This article discusses the basics of a step-down (buck) DC Switched-Mode Power Supply (SMPS). It should serve at an entry-level tutorial and a building step towards the more advanced designs.
