Abstract:
An electrostatic discharge protection circuit includes a metal-oxide semiconductor transistor having a first terminal connected to an input end, and a gate connected to a supply voltage; a first bipolar junction transistor having a first terminal connected to the input end, and a base connected to a second terminal of the metal-oxide semiconductor transistor; a second bipolar junction transistor having a first terminal connected to the input end, a second terminal connected to the supply voltage, and a base connected to the second terminal of the first bipolar junction transistor; a first resistive device having a first end connected to the second terminal of the metal-oxide semiconductor transistor, and a second end connected to the supply voltage; and a second resistive device having a first end connected to the second terminal of the first bipolar junction transistor, and a second end connected to the supply voltage.
