Abstract

The related static discharge protection circuit comprises: above the trap area, setting a multicrysta silicon layer and a SiO2 layer every with length not less than distance between the N-trap P+ injection area side wall near P-trap and the P-trap N+ injection area side wall near N-trap, and setting throughole on former two layers corresponding to the injection area. Unlike to current thyristor SCR method, this invention increases effective area for fast discharging, and improves the static tolerance capacity for the static discharge circuit.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of integrated circuits, and in particular relates to an electrostatic discharge protection circuit that saves layout and increases the effective area of ​​electrostatic current discharge without changing the process. Background technique [0002] Electrostatic discharge is an instantaneous process in which a large amount of charge is poured into the integrated circuit from the outside to the inside when an integrated circuit is floating. The entire process takes about 100ns. In addition, a high voltage of hundreds or even thousands of volts will be generated when the integrated circuit is discharged, which will penetrate the gate oxide layer of the input stage in the integrated circuit. As the size of the MOS tube in the integrated circuit becomes smaller and smaller, the thickness of the gate oxide layer becomes thinner and thinner. Under this trend, a high-performance electrostatic protection circuit is used to...
