Abstract

An ESD protection circuit and an electronic device, the ESD protection circuit includes: a power supply terminal; a ground terminal; and different types: the source and drain of the clamping transistor are electrically connected to the substrate terminal, and are connected to the power supply terminal; the gate of the MOS transistor is electrically connected to the substrate terminal; the The first pole of the MOS transistor is electrically connected to the gate of the clamping transistor, and the second pole of the MOS transistor is connected to the ground terminal; wherein, when ESD occurs, the MOS transistor is turned on, forming the A parasitic current between the substrate terminal of the transistor and the second pole is clamped. The solution of the present invention can better prevent the leakage path from generating leakage current and avoid affecting the quality of the core device.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of semiconductors, in particular to an ESD protection circuit and an electronic device. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of the semiconductor manufacturing process, devices with ultra-thin gate oxide layers and thin dielectrics are increasing, and the electrostatic discharge (Electro-Static Discharge, ESD) problem has gradually become one of the main factors of chip failure. Taking Fin Field Effect Transistor (FinFET) as an example, in the face of the high leakage problem of multiple Fin structures, the ESD protection circuit inside the chip is indispensable. [0003] In the prior art, there already exists a protection scheme that adopts a clamp circuit (Clamp Circuit) including a clamp transistor (Clamp Transistor) as an ESD protection circuit. Specifically, the ESD protection circuit drives an N-type An active circuit of a clamping transistor, and the clamping transistor is coupled...
