Latch-up is a condition in CMOS circuits where a parasitic structure forms a low-impedance path between the power supply and ground, causing excessive current flow and potentially damaging the circuit. It can be prevented by using guard rings, proper layout techniques, and adding well-taps to control the substrate potential.
