Abstract
This protected MOS transistor circuit has a p-type semiconductor substrate, VSS terminal, input MOS transistor, first resistor connected to the gate electrode of transistor, and MOS transistor which has a gate electrode connected to the VSS terminal and a current path connected between the VSS terminal and a junction of the first resistor and the gate electrode of the input MOS transistor. This protected MOS transistor circuit further has a second resistor connected in series with the first resistor, and pn-junction diode connected reversely between the VSS terminal and the junction of the first and second resistors.
