ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE PROTECTION STRUCTURE AND CHIP - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18095667 titled 'ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE PROTECTION STRUCTURE AND CHIP

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes an electrostatic discharge protection structure and a chip. The structure includes various doped portions located in different wells within a semiconductor substrate. The N-type well and P-type well are located in the substrate, while the N-type and P-type doped portions are located in their respective wells. The first N-type doped portion has a "T" shape structure, the first P-type doped portion has a "U" shape structure, and a part of the first N-type doped portion is located in a "U" shape opening of the first P-type doped portion.

  • The electrostatic discharge protection structure includes a semiconductor substrate, N-type and P-type wells, and various doped portions.
