Problems solved by technology

However, when the substrate bias effect is not triggered by normal static electricity, but is caused by some interference (such as interference pulse), then this leakage current will have an impact on the circuit
Therefore, when the substrate bias effect is used to improve the protection ability of the electrostatic discharge protection circuit, leakage current may be generated due to false triggering

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an electrostatic discharge ESD protection circuit. Background technique [0002] When two non-conductive objects contact and separate, it is possible to cause the transfer of electrons between the two objects, causing the two non-conductive objects to generate additional charges, which are static electricity. Electro-Static Discharge (ESD) occurs when the static electricity accumulated on an object discharges an object with a relatively low potential. [0003] With the development of semiconductor technology, the problem of electrostatic discharge (ESD) is becoming more and more serious in integrated circuits. Designers have developed a variety of electrostatic discharge ESD protection circuits from the process level, device level, circuit level and system level of integrated circuits. Among them, the electrostatic discharge ESD protection circuit based on field effect transistor MOS is widely used because of its easy impleme...
