Fig. 3 represents the ESD protection circuit 300 according to preferred embodiment of the present invention.As shown in Figure 3, ESD protection circuit 300 comprises: an electric static discharge protector 301, a transmission gating circuit 303, a N type metal oxide semiconductor transistor 305, a P-type mos transistor 307, a delay circuit 309, one first inverted logic circuit 311, one second inverted logic circuit 313.Electric static discharge protector 301 is connected to a connection welding 315, and electrostatic protection element 301 is made up of two rectifier cells 317 and 319 in this embodiment, and this two rectifier cell 317 and 319 can be made up of diode or metal oxide semiconductor transistor.Transmission gating circuit 303 be connected to connection welding 315 and an output 321 and in this embodiment output 321 be connected to an internal circuit 323, but this output 321 also can be connected to other circuit.N type metal oxide semiconductor transistor 305 (can be considered the semiconductor unit) is connected to transmission gating circuit 303 and one second voltage level VGND (i.e. a power line), is biased into transmission gating circuit 303 in order to provide one first.It is noted that the structure of transmission gating circuit 303 is not limited to structure shown in Figure 3 only in order to for example.
P-type mos transistor 307 (can be considered second half conductor element) then is connected to transmission gating circuit 303 and one first voltage level Vcc (another power line), is biased into transmission gating circuit 303 in order to provide one second according to the first voltage level Vcc.Delay circuit 309 is connected to electric static discharge protector 301, in order to turning on and off the time of decision transmission gating circuit 303.In this embodiment, delay circuit 309 comprises electric capacity 325 and a resistance 327, and utilizes the value of electric capacity 325 and resistance 327 to transmit turning on and off the time of gating circuit 303 with decision, but is not in order to limit the present invention.Electric capacity 325 and resistance 327 are connected in series with node C, and the signal on this node C promptly can be considered the detection signal of a static discharge.The first inverted logic circuit 311 is connected to delay circuit 309, transmission gating circuit 303 and N type metal oxide semiconductor transistor 305, produces one first control signal in order to the output (being detection signal) of foundation delay circuit 309.The second inverted logic circuit 313 is connected to the first inverted logic circuit 311, P-type mos transistor 307 and transmission gating circuit 303, in order to produce one second control signal CS2, wherein transmit gating circuit 303 and optionally open or turn-off according to first, second control signal CS1, CS2 according to the output of the first inverted logic circuit 311.
Transmission gating circuit 303 is a transmission gating (transmission gate), and comprises a N type metal oxide semiconductor transistor 329 and a P-type mos transistor 331, but is not in order to limit the present invention.As shown in Figure 3, the grid of N type metal oxide semiconductor transistor 329 (can be considered the first controlled end) is connected to the grid of N type metal oxide semiconductor transistor 325, and the source electrode of N type metal oxide semiconductor transistor 305 is connected respectively to the P trap (P-Well) or the substrate (body) of the second voltage level VGND and N type metal oxide semiconductor transistor 329 with drain electrode.P-type mos transistor 331 is parallel to N type metal oxide semiconductor transistor 329, and its grid (can be considered the second controlled end) is connected to the grid of this P-type mos 307, and wherein the source electrode of P-type mos transistor 307 and drain electrode are connected respectively to the N trap (N-Well) of the first voltage level Vcc and P-type mos transistor 331.And in this embodiment, the first inverted logic circuit 311 and the second inverted logic circuit 313 are inverter, but also can utilize other logical circuits to realize identical effect.
To illustrate below according to the operation situation of ESD protection circuit 300 under normal operation, PS (positiveto Vss) pattern, NS (negative to Vss) pattern, PD (positive to Vdd) pattern and ND (negative to Vdd) pattern.Under normal circumstances (that is not having esd pulse to produce), level from the first control signal CS1 of the output point A of the first inverted logic circuit 311 output be high, and the level of the second control signal CS2 that exports from the output point B of the second inverted logic circuit 312 is low.Therefore N type metal oxide semiconductor transistor 305, P-type mos transistor 307, N type metal oxide semiconductor transistor 329 and P-type mos transistor 331 are the state of conducting, have lower input impedance.
When esd pulse entered, if the PS pattern, then the lock point C of the first inverted logic circuit 311 was owing to see through the relation that electric capacity 325 is coupled to esd pulse, and its level is high, so the voltage of output point A is high for low output point B.Therefore N type metal oxide semiconductor transistor 305, P-type mos transistor 307, N type metal oxide semiconductor transistor 329 and P-type mos transistor 331 are for the state of shutoff, so esd pulse can't flow into internal circuit 323.In the case, esd pulse mainly is to be derived by rectifier cell 319, also can be derived by other peripheral auxiliary circuits.This peripheral auxiliary circuit is owing to known to those skilled in the art knowing, so do not repeat them here.
Under the NS pattern, rectifier cell 319 is switched on to derive esd pulse.Under the PD pattern, rectifier cell 317 is switched on to derive esd pulse.
And under the ND pattern, rectifier cell 319 is switched on, second voltage level is pulled to the voltage close with esd pulse, because esd pulse is a negative voltage, relatively first voltage level becomes high relatively level, the lock point C of inverted logic circuit 311 is connected to high relatively level simultaneously, therefore be height from the level of the control signal CS1 of output point A output for the level of low control signal CS2 from output point B output, so N type metal oxide semiconductor transistor 305, P-type mos transistor 307, N type metal oxide semiconductor transistor 329 and the state of P-type mos transistor 331 for turn-offing be not so esd pulse can flow into internal circuit 323.In the case, esd pulse mainly is to be derived by rectifier cell 317, also can be derived by other peripheral auxiliary circuits.This peripheral auxiliary circuit is owing to known to those skilled in the art knowing, so do not repeat them here.
According to the foregoing circuit structure, because P-type mos transistor 331 is not directly connected to delay circuit 309, therefore do not have situation about can't turn-off, and P-type mos transistor 307 can prevent the generation of parasitic path (for example being the NPN parasitic path).And this circuit does not use the LC resonant circuit, therefore can avoid potential oscillation problem, and the area aspect also can be adjusted by the grid width of adjusting the transmission gating circuit.
The above only is the preferred embodiments of the present invention, and all equivalences of carrying out according to claim of the present invention change and revise, and all should belong to covering scope of the present invention.
