Hi,
How to design an ESD circuits in I/O cells or in complex chips.
Do anyone have information about this , please share it with me.

With Regards,
Sandysuhy.
 

Just use the STD cell IP vendor's PADs.
The ESD circuits are implemented within PADs.
 

Usually the I/O PAD provided by foundary is too big.
Some company will design their own I/O PAD for area consideration.
There are many books and IEEE papers talking about this topic. You may find them via google.
The whole chip ESD design/consideration is more than just I/O PAD itself. Most foundary will provide some guidelines and suggestion about the whole chip ESD design consideration. You may find them in the Layout rule documents.
