Abstract
A circuit arrangement for protecting against electrostatic discharges comprises a diverter (ECL) that is suitable for diverting an electrostatic discharge between a first terminal (IO) and a second terminal (VDD, VSS), as well as a compensation device (). The compensation device () features a series circuit of a first resistor (RS) and a field effect transistor (T) that is connected between the first terminal (IO) and the second terminal (VDD, VSS). A junction (K) between the first resistor (RS) and the field effect transistor (T) is connected to the gate terminal (G) of the field effect transistor (T) via an RC series circuit that acts as a low-pass filter.
