    Abstract: This application discloses an electrostatic discharge protection apparatus and an integrated circuit with multiple power domains. The electrostatic discharge protection apparatus includes a diode and an NMOS transistor. A positive electrode of the diode is coupled to a first interface, a negative electrode of the diode is coupled to a first electrode of the NMOS transistor, both a second electrode of the NMOS transistor and a gate electrode of the NMOS transistor are coupled to a second interface, and a substrate of the NMOS transistor is used for grounding. At least one electrostatic discharge protection apparatus may be disposed in the integrated circuit with multiple power domains.
