electronic spike over voltage

By Mike Byrne
INTRODUCTION
All IC processes have an intrinsic breakdown voltage associated wlth them. and this results in a maximum voltage stress which can be applied to any device fabricated on that process. Aa a result, all IC manufacturers give an Absolute Maximum Ratings specification for their devices. This generally gives the maximum voltage which [...]
