Abstract

The present application provides an electrostatic discharge protection circuit including a first N-type transistor, a second N-type transistor and a high-voltage tracing circuit. The high-voltage tracing circuit includes a first input terminal, a second input terminal and an output terminal. The first input terminal is coupled to the metal pad to receive a metal pad voltage. The second input terminal receives a supply voltage. The output terminal is coupled to the second N-type transistor and configured to output a high-voltage tracing voltage, wherein the high-voltage tracing voltage is larger than or equal to the metal pad voltage.
