Abstract: A combined isolator and power switch is disclosed. Such devices are useful in isolating low voltage components such as control compilers from motors or generators working at high voltages. The combined isolator and power switch includes circuits to transfer internal power from its low voltage side to the switch driver circuits on the high voltage side. The combined isolator and switch is compact and easy to use.

Abstract: The disclosed technology generally relates to integrated circuit devices with wear out monitoring capability. An integrated circuit device includes a wear-out monitor device configured to record an indication of wear-out of a core circuit separated from the wear-out monitor device, wherein the indication is associated with localized diffusion of a diffusant within the wear-out monitor device in response to a wear-out stress that causes the wear-out of the core circuit.

Abstract: Components can be damaged if they are exposed to excess voltages. A device is disclosed herein which can be placed in series with a component and a node that may be exposed to high voltages. If the voltage becomes too high, the device can autonomously switch into a relatively high impedance state, thereby protecting the other components.

Abstract: The disclosed technology generally relates to electrical overstress protection devices, and more particularly to electrical overstress monitoring devices for detecting electrical overstress events in semiconductor devices. In one aspect, an electrical overstress monitor and/or protection device includes a two different conductive structures configured to electrically arc in response to an EOS event and a sensing circuit configured to detect a change in a physical property of the two conductive structures caused by the EOS event. The two conductive structures have facing surfaces that have different shapes;

Abstract: A temperature shock monitor includes a solvent material and a diffusion material. An energy barrier between the solvent material and the diffusion material is selected to be lower than is would conventionally be used in semiconductor devices such that the diffusion material diffuses into the solvent material when exposed to a temperature above a designated temperature threshold. At a later time, electrical parameters of the temperature shock monitor that change based on the amount of diffusion of the diffusion material into the solvent material allows one to determine whether the temperature shock monitor was exposed to a temperature above the temperature threshold.

Abstract: A protection device is provided that is placed in series connection between an input or signal node and a node to be protected. If the node to be protected is a relatively high impedance node, such as the gate of a MOSFET, then the protection device need not carry much current. This enables it to be built to be very fast. This enables it to respond rapidly to an overvoltage event so as to protect the circuit connected to the node to be protected. The protection device may be used in conjunction with other protection cells that offer greater current carrying capability and controllable trigger voltages, but which are intrinsically slower acting
