Problems solved by technology

[0003] Electrostatic discharge (ESD, electrostatic discharge) will occur rapidly with extremely high intensity, break down semiconductor devices, or generate enough heat to melt semiconductor devices and semiconductor devices. Downgrading, or scrapping, will bring great economic losses
Therefore, electrostatic discharge will bring fatal harm to electronic products. It not only reduces the reliability of products, but also increases maintenance costs.

[0067] Figure 4 It is a cross-sectional view of the electrostatic discharge protection structure in the second embodiment of the present invention. Combine Figure 4 On the basis of Embodiment 1, in this embodiment, the electrostatic discharge wire 13 and the first interconnection line 11 are staggered in the longitudinal direction, and the staggered width d2 is greater than 0um and less than or equal to 2.5um, and the staggered width Within this range, d2 can produce a breakdown effect in time when static electricity comes, and then protect the electrostatic sensitive components connected to the electrostatic discharge protection structure.

Embodiment 3

[0069] Figure 5 It is a cross-sectional view of the electrostatic discharge protection structure in the third embodiment of the present invention. Combine Figure 5 On the basis of the first embodiment, the surface where the longitudinal boundary of the electrostatic discharge wire 13 is located coincides with the surface where the longitudinal boundary of the first interconnection line 11 is located. Since the surface of the longitudinal boundary of the electrostatic discharge wire 13 coincides with the surface of the longitudinal boundary of the first interconnect 11, compared with the first and second embodiments, the electrostatic discharge wire 13 is close to the first interconnect. An electrostatic discharge path L can be formed between the vertex angle of the connecting line 11 and the adjacent vertex angle of the first interconnection line 11, and the length of the electrostatic discharge path L ranges from 0.2 μm to 3 μm, so as to be able to be in the passivation layer...
