Abstract:
One or more techniques or systems for forming an n-type metal oxide semiconductor (NMOS) transistor for electrostatic discharge (ESD) are provided herein. In some embodiments, the NMOS transistor includes a first region, a first n-type plus (NP) region, a first p-type plus (PP) region, a second NP region, a second PP region, a shallow trench isolation (STI) region, and a gate stack. In some embodiments, the first PP region is between the first NP region and the second NP region. In some embodiments, the second NP region is between the first PP region and the second PP region, the gate stack is between the first PP region and the second NP region, the STI region is between the second NP region and the second PP region. Accordingly, the first PP region enables ESD current to discharge based on a low trigger voltage for the NMOS transistor.
