Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of semiconductors, in particular to an ESD clamping circuit and an integrated circuit. . Background technique [0002] With the advancement of integrated circuit technology, the feature size of Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistor (MOSFET) is getting smaller and smaller, and the thickness of the gate oxide layer is getting thinner. Under the trend, it is very important to use a high-performance electrostatic discharge (Electron Static Discharge, ESD) protection device to discharge electrostatic charges to protect the gate oxide layer. . When the electrostatic discharge of the integrated circuit will generate hundreds or even thousands of volts of high voltage, the gate oxide layer of the input stage in the integrated circuit will be broken down. In order to be able to withstand such a high ESD voltage, integrated circuit products usually must use ESD protection devices with high performance and high en...
