One embodiment of an integrated circuit includes a semiconductor body. In the semiconductor body a first trench region extends into the semiconductor body from a first surface. The integrated circuit further includes a diode including an anode region and a cathode region. One of the anode region and the cathode region is at least partly arranged in the first trench region. The other one of the anode region and the cathode region includes a first semiconductor region adjoining the one of the anode region and the cathode region from outside of the first trench region.

A protection circuit includes a controllable discharge element having a load path coupled between a first second circuit nodes. The discharge element provides a discharge path between the first and the second circuit nodes when in an on state. A trigger circuit has a first connection coupled to the first circuit node and a second connections coupled to the second circuit node. The trigger circuit is configured to produce a drive signal that switches the discharge element to its on state when the voltage between the first and the second circuit nodes reaches a trigger value. A setting circuit coupled to the trigger circuit is configured to change the trigger value from a first trigger value to a second trigger value depending on a voltage between the first and the second circuit nodes and/or on the drive signal.

An integrated circuit arrangement includes a Shockley diode or a thyristor. An inner region of the diode or of the thyristor is completely or partially shielded during the implantation of a p-type well. This gives rise to a Shockley diode or a thyristor having improved electrical properties, in particular with regard to the use as an ESD protection element.

An electrostatic discharge (ESD) protective apparatus for a semiconductor circuit has at least one ESD protective element, which is connected between the substrate contact and a ground potential connection, and is electrically connected to the substrate contact. The ESD protective element may be in the form of an ESD protective diode or an ESD protective transistor. It is also possible to connect a resistor or an ESD protective transistor between the substrate contact and the ground potential connection as an ESD protective element, and additionally to connect an ESD protective diode or an ESD protective transistor between the substrate contact and a supply voltage potential connection.
