An ESD protection circuit protecting an internal circuit. The internal circuit is powered by a first and second power supply and has an input terminal receiving an input signal on a pad. A capacitor is connected between the input terminal of the internal circuit and the second power supply. The ESD protection circuit comprises a protection circuit connected between the pad and the first power supply, and establishing a conductive path from the pad to the first power supply when an ESD event occurs, and an inductance connected between the pad and the input terminal of the internal circuit, and cutting off a conductive path from the pad to the capacitor when the ESD event occurs.
