ESD – Circuits and Devices 2e

Dr. Steven H. Voldman is the first IEEE Fellow in the field of electrostatic discharge (ESD) for "Contributions in ESD protection in CMOS, Silicon On Insulator and Silicon Germanium Technology." Voldman was a member of the semiconductor development of IBM, Qimonda, and Intersil and worked as a full time consultant for Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Corporation (TSMC) and a consultant on latchup, for the Samsung Electronics Corporation. He initiated the "ESD on Campus" program which was established to bring ESD lectures and interaction to university faculty and students internationally reaching over 40 universities in the United States, Korea, Singapore, Taiwan, Malaysia, Philippines, Thailand, India, China and Senegal. He is a recipient of 252 issued US patents and has written over 150 technical papers. He has served as an expert witness in patent litigation; and has also founded a limited liability corporation (LLC) consulting business supporting patents, patent writing and patent litigation. Steven Voldman provides tutorials and lectures on inventions, innovations, and patents. Dr. Voldman is an author of the book series including ESD: Physics and Devices, ESD: Circuits and Devices, 2nd Edition of ESD: Circuits and Devices, ESD: Radio Frequency (RF) Technology and Circuits, Latchup, ESD: Failure Mechanisms and Models, ESD: Design and Synthesis, ESD Basics: From Semiconductor Manufacturing to Product Use, and Electrical Overstress (EOS): Devices, Circuits and Systems, ESD: Analog Circuits and Design, as well as a contributor to the book Silicon Germanium: Technology, Modeling and Design andNanoelectronics: Nanowires, Molecular Electronics, and Nano-devices. In addition, the International Chinese editions of booksare also released.
