Abstract
Correlation problems for HBM-ESD testing result from the complex inter action between device and tester. The HBM stresses of different well-c haracterized testers(1,2) are applied to protection elements. By means of circuit simulations and in situ measurements, snapback and second breakdown during HBM are investigated. For fast transient events, a ne w transmission line approach of the tester improves the correlation be tween experiment and simulation.
