Abstract
Examples of a protection circuit for an interface are described. In an example, the protection circuit comprises an electrostatic discharge (ESD) module. The ESD module suppresses a discharge voltage caused due to an electrostatic discharge. The ESD module may be further coupled to a capacitive element and a resistive element. The capacitive element is to route discharge voltage caused due to an electrostatic discharge, while the resistive element is to route a reverse DC operated voltage.
