Electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection circuitry is essential for every I/O cell design and has its own set of design rules. These design rules are not only complex but also beyond the scope of commercial DRC tools. In this paper, we present the framework of our ESD design rule checker, and address some of the open issues in the ESD design rule checker presented by Sinha et al. (1998).
