Sarnoff's 65nm CMOS TakeCharge(R) ESD Solution licensed to Fujitsu, Japan.GISTEL, Belgium -- Sarnoff Europe (www.sarnoffeurope.com) today announced that it has licensed its on-chip electrostatic discharge (hardware, testing) Electrostatic Discharge - (ESD) One kind of test that hardware usually has to pass to prove it is suitable for sale and use. The hardware must still work after is has been subjected to some level of electrostatic discharge. (ESD (1) (Electronic Software Distribution) Distributing new software and upgrades via the network rather than individual installations on each machine. See ESL. ) protection portfolio, TakeCharge([R]) to Fujitsu. Sarnoff customized the TakeCharge([R])solution specifically to protect Fujitsu's 65 nanometer complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS (Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor) Pronounced "c-moss." The most widely used integrated circuit design. It is found in almost every electronic product from handheld devices to mainframes. ) integrated circuits (IC) products from ESD damage. With the Fujitsu and Sarnoff TakeCharge([R]) license agreement covering a wide range of Fujitsu's IC and wafer production, Fujitsu is targeting an extensive deployment of the TakeCharge([R])technology as the standard ESD design solution in their 65nm IO libraries. "Fujitsu selected Sarnoff's TakeCharge to help continue our tradition of providing customers with highly reliable high-performance products and services based on powerful technologies," said Shoji shoji In Japanese architecture, sliding partition doors and windows made of a latticework wooden frame and covered with a tough, translucent white paper. When closed, they softly diffuse light throughout the house. Ichino, general manager, Technology Development Division, Electronic Devices Business Unit of Fujitsu Limited. TakeCharge([R]) will be Fujitsu's primary ESD solution for their 65nm CMOS technologies after its full deployment in Fujitsu's related standard IO libraries. "With more and more major companies struggling to meet industry standard requirements such as 2kV Human Body Model (HBM HBM Human Body Model HBM Human Brain Mapping HBM Hottinger Baldwin Messtechnik GmbH (German company) HBM High Bone Mass HBM Hybrid Bilayer Membrane HBM Humming Bird Medal HBM Her/His Britannic Majesty ) and 200V Machine Model (MM), we're glad Fujitsu recognized Sarnoff can offer desired results and superior performance," said Koen Verhaege, executive director of Sarnoff Europe. "Fujitsu's selection of TakeCharge speaks greatly to the trust they, and the industry in general, have placed in Sarnoff to provide quality solutions." TakeCharge([R]) technology is silicon proven in advanced processes down to 65nm CMOS, with 45nm ESD design solutions already in full development, and is widely used by leading IC producers worldwide, including Toshiba, Sony, OKI, NJR NJR National Joint Registry (UK) NJR New Japan Radio Corp (Japan) NJR New Jersey Resources, Inc.
