CPC H01L 27/0285 (2013.01) [H01L 27/0266 (2013.01); H02H 9/046 (2013.01)] | 20 Claims |
1. An electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection device comprising:
a trigger circuit;
a driver circuit comprising two parallel branches that are both configured to receive a same ESD protection signal from the trigger circuit; and
a discharge circuit comprising a first transistor and a second transistor connected in series to a first voltage potential;
wherein when an ESD spike is applied to the first voltage potential, the same ESD protection signal turns on both the first and second transistors; and
wherein the first and second transistors are fin field effect transistors.
