For example, a multi voltage-domain Electro Static Discharge (ESD) power clamp may include a plurality of pins; and an ESD array including a cascaded plurality of ESD power clamps. For example, the ESD array may include a plurality of ESD array portions configured to protect a respective plurality of voltage domains from ESD. For example, the ESD array may be configured to connect the plurality of ESD array portions between a respective plurality of pin pairs from the plurality of pins. For example, an ESD array portion corresponding to a voltage domain may include one or more ESD power clamps of the cascaded plurality of ESD power clamps. For example, the ESD array portion may be configured to protect a voltage range of the voltage domain.

Multi voltage-domain electro static discharge (ESD) power clamp

Some demonstrative embodiments include devices and/or systems of a Silicon Controlled Rectifier (SCR). For example, a silicon controlled rectifier (SCR) may include a metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET), the MOSFET may include a gate; an N-type source region; a non-Lightly Doped Drain (LDD) N-type drain region; and a P-Well region extending between the N-type source region and the non-LDD N-type drain region, and extending between the non-LDD N-type drain region and a drain region of the gate.
