N2 - To offer the electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection in high-frequency integrated circuits, a new RC-diode ESD protection design is presented in this work. The protection circuit combines the ESD diodes with the embedded silicon-controlled rectifier (SCR) and the inserting resistors to provide the appropriate performances including ESD-current-handling ability, signal loss, and layout area. Based on the experimental results in CMOS chip, the new design is a proper solution for ESD protection in high-frequency applications.
