    Abstract: An electrostatic discharge protection circuit is disclosed. It comprises a stacked drain-ballasted NMOS devices structure and a gate bias circuit. The gate bias circuit includes an inverter, a first gate bias output terminal, and a second gate bias output terminal. The first gate bias output terminal is coupled to a gate of a first one of the drain-ballasted NMOS devices. The second gate bias output terminal runs from an output of the inverter to a gate of a second one of the drain-ballasted NMOS devices.
