Abstract: A bus driver is provided that can withstand over voltages being applied to its output terminal without the protection circuit detracting from the voltage swing that can be provided by the driver. The circuit arrangement also allows transistors having good on state resistance and large tolerance of drain-to-source voltages to be used.

Abstract: An integrated circuit is provided in which a surge protector, protecting against modest over-voltage events which may contain a lot of energy, and an electrostatic discharge (ESD) protector, protecting against high voltage events that may contain only a little energy, are provided within the integrated circuit package. The two types of protectors may protect against different types of electrical events.

Abstract: A protection device is provided that exhibits a turn on time of order of one nanosecond or less. Such a device provides enhanced protection for integrated circuits against electrostatic discharge events. This in turn reduces the risk of device failure in use. The protection device can include a bipolar transistor structure connected between a node to be protected and a discharge path.
Abstract translation: 提供一种保护装置,其展现了一纳秒或更少的转动时间。 这样一种器件为集成电路提供了防止静电放电事件的增强保护。 这反过来又降低了使用设备故障的风险。 保护装置可以包括连接在要保护的节点和放电路径之间的双极晶体管结构。
