Abstract

See full text

An ESD protection device includes a detection circuit and a clamping circuit. The detection circuit is configured to output a first control signal and a second control signal according to a first voltage and a second voltage that is different from the first voltage, in which if an ESD event occurs, the detection circuit is configured to perform an inverse operation according to the second voltage, in order to generate the first control signal and the second control signal. The clamping circuit is configured to be turned on according to the first control signal and the second control signal, in order to provide a discharging path for a current associated with the ESD event.
