Abstract

The invention discloses an electrostatic protection circuit of a submicron integrated circuit, comprising a first NMOS (N-metal-oxide-semiconductor) tube, a second capacitor, a second NMOS tube, a second resistor, a third capacitor and a first diode. The electrostatic protection circuit is used for solving the problems that the conduction is uneven and the coupling capacitance influences input and output signals in a GCNMOS (grounded-gate negative-channel metal oxide semiconductor) structure and provides preferable ESD (electrostatic discharge) protection for the submicron integrated circuit as well as is in no need of additional processing steps, thus reaching the purposes of improving the ESD electrostatic protection capacity of the integrated circuit and simplifying the technology, avoiding the cost increment and improving the product competitiveness.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an ESD protection circuit providing effective electrostatic protection for submicron integrated circuits, which belongs to the technical field of semiconductor manufacturing. Background technique [0002] ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) is one of the most important reliability issues for integrated circuits today. With the development of integrated circuit manufacturing technology and the continuous reduction of feature size, the antistatic ability is getting weaker and weaker. According to statistics, more than 1 / 3 of the failure of integrated circuits is caused by ESD. In order to reduce the adverse effects of ESD on integrated circuits and improve the reliability of integrated circuits, the most effective way is to add various ESD protection circuits to integrated circuits. [0003] In the conventional CMOS process, the GGNMOS (Gate Grounded NMOS) structure is generally used to provide effective ESD protection for the circuit...
