    Abstract: Electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection structures are provided. A first N-type well region is formed over a P-type semiconductor substrate. First P-type well region and second N-type well region are formed over the first N-type well region. A plurality of first device areas are formed over the first P-type well region. Each first device area includes a plurality of P-type fins extending in a first direction. The P-type fins are divided into a plurality of first groups in each of the first device areas. A second device area is formed over the first P-type well region, and includes a plurality of N-type fins extending in the first direction and surrounded by the first device areas. When an ESD event is present, an ESD current flows sequentially through the P-type fins, the first P-type well region and the N-type fins.
