Original Abstract Submitted
A circuit device includes a first low-potential-side power source terminal, a second low-potential-side power source terminal, a drive circuit, a switching control circuit, and a bidirectional thyristor for electrostatic protection. The drive circuit is coupled to the first low-potential-side power source terminal and drives a drive target with a switching operation. The switching control circuit is coupled to the second low-potential-side power source terminal and controls the switching operation of the drive circuit. One end of the bidirectional thyristor is coupled to the first low-potential-side power source terminal and another end of the bidirectional thyristor is coupled to the second low-potential-side power source terminal.
