Some embodiments of the application provide a filter circuit that is based on a MOS field effect transistor and a chip including the same. The filter circuit includes a first MOS field effect transistor and an electrostatic discharge unit; a gate of the first MOS field effect transistor and a substrate form a filter capacitance during normal operation; the electrostatic discharge unit and the first MOS field effect transistor form a discharge path that transfers aggregated electrostatic charges to ground when an ESD event occurs. On the basis of the first MOS field effect transistor, it is added to some embodiments of the present application an electrostatic discharge unit, which combines a capacitance characteristic and a characteristic of the ESD discharge path between the power supply and the ground to the same circuit, so that the circuit presents the capacitance characteristic during normal operation; an ESD discharge path is provided when an ESD event occurs between the power supply and the ground, which plays a role of ESD protection, thereby enhancing the ESD capability of the chip.
