<p>Disclosed is an ESD protection device wherein the ESD characteristics can be easily adjusted or stabilized. Also disclosed is a method for manufacturing the ESD protection device. The ESD protection device comprises: (a) an insulating substrate (12); (b) a cavity (13) formed within the insulating substrate; (c) at least one pair of discharge electrodes (16, 18), each having an exposed part exposed to the cavity (13); and (d) external electrodes (22, 24) formed on the surface of the insulating substrate (12) and connected to the discharge electrodes (16, 18). Auxiliary electrodes (14s, 14p) obtained by dispersing a conductive powder in an insulating material forming the insulating substrate (12), are formed along the bottom surface (13s) and the top surface (13p), said surfaces constituting the cavity (13) between the exposed parts of the discharge electrodes (16, 18).</p> |
