In the normal case (ie, no ESD pulse is generated), the level of the first control signal (3) output from the output point A of the first inverting logic circuit is high, and the second inverting logic circuit 312 is The level of the second control signal CS2 outputted by the output point b is low. Therefore, the N-type MOS transistor 3〇5, the p-type MOS transistor, the N-type MOS transistor 329, and the P-type MOS transistor mi are turned on. The state has a low input impedance. . When the ESD pulse enters, 'if ps mode', the first inverting logic circuit C is connected to the ESD pulse due to the transmission capacitor 325, and its level is high, so the output point A is low and the output is low. Point b is high. Therefore, the N-type MOS semiconductor 305, the P-type MOS transistor 3〇7, the N-type MOS transistor 329, and the P-type MOS transistor 331 are in a closed state, so the ESD pulse does not occur.

In this case, the ESD pulse is mainly derived by the rectifying element 319 or may be derived by other peripheral auxiliary circuits. · This peripheral auxiliary electric power will not be described here. Since the road is known to the technical know-how, _tNS^T ’ 319 materials are used to input SD pulses. (d), work rectification several pieces 317 are turned on to derive ESD pulses. In the ND mode, the reduction component 3]_9 is turned on, and the second electric fresh bit is pulled to be close to the pulse, because the coffee pulse is a negative voltage, and the first voltage level is relatively high. Bit, __ circuit 3 ιι__ C is lightly connected to a relatively high level 'Therefore the level f of the control signal q outputted from the output point A is low and the level of the control signal CS2 outputted from the output point B is high, therefore The N-type MOS transistor 305, the P-type MOS transistor 3〇7, the N-type MOS transistor B, and the P-type MOS transistor %丨 are in a closed state, so the ESD pulse does not flow into the interior.

In addition, since the peripheral auxiliary circuit is known to those skilled in the art, it will not be described here. According to the above circuit configuration, since the p-type MOS transistor 331 is not directly connected to the delay circuit 309, there is no possibility that the p-type MOS transistor 307 can prevent the channel (for example, Generation of NpN parasitic channels).
