- The partnership will bring together IISc's expertise in advanced nanoelectronics research with SSRI’s technology and resources, with the goal of developing cutting-edge ESD solutions for ultra-high-speed serial interfaces in advanced Integrated Circuits (ICs) and system-on-chip (SoC) products.
- The research will be conducted by Professor Mayank Shrivastava's group at IISc's Department of Electronic Systems Engineering and the solutions developed will be integrated into Samsung's advanced process nodes.
- ICs and SoCs are crucial components in many systems, but they are also sensitive to ESD failures, particularly those made using advanced nanoscale technologies.
- ESD failures are a major cause of IC chip failures and field returns, making R&D in ESD protection essential to the innovation effort in the semiconductor industry.
- IISc is a leading institute in the world for ESD device research.
