  • Electrostatic discharge protection circuit and design
    Patent number: 10897132
    Abstract: Electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection for an electronic circuit includes a timer circuit that controls multiple clamp circuits. In this way, less circuit area may be used for the timer circuit as compared to conventional ESD protection schemes. In some embodiments, the ESD protection circuit is employed in a data storage apparatus that includes a non-volatile memory array (e.g., NAND devices).
    Type: Grant
