ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE PROTECTION DEVICES AND METHODS FOR PROTECTING SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICES AGAINST ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE EVENTS |
摘要 |
Methods and devices are provided for protecting semiconductor devices against electrostatic discharge events. An electrostatic discharge protection device comprises a silicon substrate, a P<SUP>+</SUP>-type anode region disposed within the silicon substrate, and an N-well device region disposed within the silicon substrate in series with the P<SUP>+</SUP>-type anode region. A first P-well device region is disposed within the silicon substrate in series with the first N-well device region and an N<SUP>+</SUP>-type cathode region is disposed within the silicon substrate. A gate electrode is disposed at least substantially overlying the first N-well and P-well device regions of the silicon substrate.
