Abstract
One embodiment of the disclosure provides an electrostatic discharge protection circuit. The electrostatic discharge protection circuit includes a p-type field effect transistor, a capacitance device and an n-type field effect transistor. The p-type field effect transistor has a source coupled to an input/output terminal, a gate coupled to a first node and a drain coupled to a second node. The capacitance device has a first terminal coupled to a first rail and a second terminal coupled to the first node. The n-type field effect transistor has a source coupled to the first rail, a gate coupled to the second node and a drain coupled to the first node.
