Abstract

A cross power domain failure, caused by the secondary pulse produced by HBM testers, is presented. Previous works report damage due to "trailing pulse" EOS, but this failure is caused by the second discharge which occurs when the relay achieves mechanical continuity. ESD paths which are not transiently triggered can protect against this stress.
