Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a peripheral circuit of a liquid crystal display device, in particular to an electrostatic discharge protection circuit for a thin film transistor liquid crystal display (TFT LCD) panel. Background technique [0002] In semiconductor devices, electrostatic damage (ESD: Electro Static Discharge) is a common phenomenon. Electrostatic damage can lead to the breakdown of the insulating medium, which can cause a shift in threshold voltage or a short circuit between the gate and source and drain electrodes. For thin film transistor devices such as TFT LCD, electrostatic damage is more prone to occur during its manufacturing process, because the thin film transistor (TFT) is formed on the insulating substrate glass, and the electrode charge is easy to accumulate to a higher voltage level. When the accumulation of static electricity reaches a certain level, the insulating dielectric film separating the gate electrode and the source an...
