Abstract:
An electric static discharge (ESD) diode pair is disclosed. The first diode of the device includes a first diode junction portion having vertically orientated and horizontally oriented portions of a first conductivity and a second diode junction portion of a second conductivity in direct contact with both of the vertically orientated and horizontally orientated portions of the first diode junction portion. The second diode of the device includes a first diode junction portion having vertically orientated and horizontally oriented portions of a second conductivity and a second diode junction portion having a first conductivity in direct contact with both of the vertically orientated and horizontally orientated portions of the first diode junction portion. A common electrical contact is in direct contact first diode junction portion for each of the first diode and the second diode.
