EMC CHARACTERISTICS (Cont’d)

True Open Drain Pin Protection

The centralized protection (4) is not involved in the

discharge of the ESD stresses applied to true

open drain pads due to the fact that a P-Buffer and

diode to VDD are not implemented. An additional

local protection between the pad and VSS (5a &

5b) is implemented to completely absorb the posi-

tive ESD discharge.

Multisupply Configuration

When several types of ground (VSS, VSSA, ...) and

power supply (VDD, VAREF, ...) are available for

any reason (better noise immunity...), the structure

shown in Figure 95 is implemented to protect the

device against ESD.
