发明名称 Electrostatic discharge (ESD) clamp circuit with high effective holding voltage
摘要 Boosted Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) clamp circuit with high effective holding voltage. In some embodiments, an integrated circuit may include a trigger circuit operably coupled to a first voltage bus and to a reference bus; a diode including an anode terminal operably coupled to a second voltage bus, the second voltage bus distinct from the first voltage bus; a transistor including a gate operably coupled to an output terminal of the trigger circuit, a drain operably coupled to a cathode terminal of the diode, and a source operably coupled to the reference bus; and an input/output (I/O) cell operably coupled to the first voltage bus, the second voltage bus, and the reference bus.
