Abstract
An ESD protection device is provided. Each of a first and a second well has a first conductive type. Each of a first and a second doping region has a second conductive type and is formed in the first well. A third doping region has the first conductive type. A fourth doping region has the second conductive type. The third and fourth doping regions are formed in the second doping region. Each of a fifth and a sixth doping region has the second conductive type and is formed in the second well. A seventh doping region has the first conductive type. An eighth doping region has the second conductive type. The seventh and eighth doping region are formed in the sixth doping region. A first and a second trigger gate are formed on the first and second wells and partially cover the second and sixth doping regions respectively.
