Abstract:
A semiconductor structure includes a first heavily doped region, a first well, a second well and a second heavily doped region disposed sequentially. The first well and the second heavily doped region have a first conductive type. The second well and the first heavily doped region have a second conductive type. The semiconductor structure further includes at least one switch, such that at least one of conditions (A) and (B) is satisfied. (A) The switch is coupled between the first well and the first node such that the first well is controlled by the switch and floated under an ESD protection mode. (B) The switch is coupled between the second well and the second node such that the second well is controlled by the switch and floated under an ESD protection mode.
