Abstract
An electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection circuit, set forth by way of example and not limitation, includes an input operative to receive input signals and a primary protection circuit coupled to the input. The protection circuit is operative to provide a single ESD current path for one or more the input signals that are ESD strikes. The currents of positive ESD strikes and negative ESD strikes flow through the single ESD current path, where the single ESD current path is not used by one or more of the input signals that are non-ESD signals.
