An ESD protection device for a multi-voltage system includes a first circuit block, a second circuit block, a first power clamp circuit and a second power clamp circuit. The first and second circuit blocks respectively operate at a first power voltage and a second power voltage smaller than the first power voltage. The first power clamp circuit, coupled to the first circuit block, has a breakdown voltage between the first and second power voltages and a holding voltage greater than or equal to the first power voltage. The second power clamp circuit is smacked on the first power clamp circuit and coupled to the second circuit block. A total breakdown voltage of the first and second power clamp circuits is greater than the second power voltage, and a total holding voltage of the first and second power clamp circuits is greater than or equal to the second power voltage.
