Package level ESD protection and method therefor

摘要

A semiconductor package includes an electrostatic discharge rail capable of being coupled to a first conductive contact and a second conductive contact, a first portion of a voltage triggerable material between the electrostatic discharge rail and the first conductive contact; and a second portion of the voltage triggerable material between the electrostatic discharge rail and the second conductive contact. The first and second conductive contacts may be coupled to the same semiconductor device or different semiconductor devices.
