Abstract

The protection circuit includes hyperdactylia paralleled GGNMOS circuit, and diode. Drain pole of GGNMOS is connected to previous stage of internal circuit. Source pole of the middle GGNMOS and substrate are connected to anode of the diode, and grid pole is connected to ground. Source poles and grid poles of the other GGNMOS are connected to ground, and substrates connected to each other are connected to anode of the diode. Cathode of diode is connected to ground. When ESD occurs, the middle GGNMOS is turned to on first so as to generate bias voltage at diode, and provide the bias for substrates of all peripheral GGNMOS. Thus, all GGNMOS in the protection circuit are turned to open uniformly. The invention is suitable for manufacturing IC.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of integrated circuit manufacturing, in particular to an electrostatic protection circuit in the integrated circuit. Background technique [0002] Integrated circuits are easily damaged by static electricity. Generally, an electrostatic protection circuit is designed in the input and output terminals of the circuit or power supply protection to prevent the internal circuit from being damaged by static electricity. GGNMOS (Gate Grounded NMOS, gate grounded N-type metal oxide transistor) is a widely used electrostatic protection structure. figure 1 It is a schematic diagram of the GGNMOS circuit structure. Such as figure 1 As shown, 3 is GGNOMOS, wherein the drain 4 of the GGNOMOS is connected to the previous stage of the internal circuit 2, and the source 6, the gate 5 and the substrate 7 are all grounded. figure 2 It is the layout of multi-finger parallel GGNMOS circuit. Such as figure 2 As shown, in order to e...
