Abstract:
An integrated circuit with either a normally open MEMS ESD protection switch coupled between a bond pad and an internal circuit or a normally closed MEMS ESD protection switch coupled between the bond pad and a common reference of the integrated circuit. At least one of a control bond pad and an enable logic circuit is coupled to a control terminal of the MEMS ESD protection switch.
