An electronic device utilizing an electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection structure. The electronic device comprises a housing and a printed circuit board (PCB) with an ESD protection structure disposed thereon. The PCB has at least one metal layer with a ground circuit and a functional circuit. The ground circuit includes at least one device-protecting area near the edge of the PCB and exposed on the surface thereof. The device-protecting area is covered by a thick conductive layer, and electric components are disposed nearby, such that static electricity can be transferred to ground through the ground circuit of the PCB to protect the electronic device from interferences and damages.
