摘要:
First to third N.sup.+ -type impurity regions are formed separately from one another by a preset distance in the surface area of a P-type semiconductor substrate or a P-well region formed in an N-type semiconductor substrate. The first impurity region is connected to a power source and the second impurity region is connected to a ground terminal. The third impurity region formed between the first and second impurity regions is connected to one end of an input protection resistor which is connected at the other end to a signal input pad. The first impurity region, the third impurity region and that portion of the P-type semiconductor substrate or P-well region which lies between the first and third impurity regions constitute a first bipolar transistor for input protection and the second impurity region, the third impurity region and that portion of the P-type semiconductor substrate or P-well region which lies between the second and third impurity regions constitute a second bipolar transistor for input protection. The resistor and the first and second bipolar transistors constitute an input protection circuit.

摘要:
Two intermediate potentials of small current driving capacity are generated using load elements and MOS transistors, and are respectively supplied to the gates of two MOS transistors which are series-connected between power sources and have large current driving capacity, thus obtaining an intermediate potential from a node between the MOS transistors. The MOS transistors at the output stage are complementarily operated so as not to be turned on at the same time.
摘要:
A protection circuit is inserted between a signal input pad and an internal circuit. The protection circuit includes a parasitic bipolar transistor which is obtained by forming high-impurity concentration semiconductor regions in the major-surface region of a substrate. In practice, it is hard to provide a parasitic bipolar transistor of a sufficiently large size, since the reduction of the size of a chip is a recent trend. With this in mind, a third semiconductor region serving as an electron-trapping region is formed in a region outside of the location where the parasitic bipolar transistor is formed. If an excessive voltage produced by ESD or the like is applied to the pad, and the excessive voltage uncontrollable by the parasitic bipolar transistor, the third semiconductor region absorbs the excessive voltage. In particular, where the current capacity of the parasitic bipolar transistor is small, the third semiconductor region reliably prevents electrostatic destruction of a circuit element. Accordingly, the protection circuit enables the parasitic bipolar transistor to be reduced in size, thus contributing to miniaturization of a chip. Moreover, the protection circuit is reliable in operation.
摘要:
An input protection circuit for MOS devices includes a first resistor and a first parasitic bipolar transistor connected between an input pad and an input buffer circuit of a MOS device. The input protection circuit for MOS devices further includes a second resistor and a second parasitic bipolar transistor connected at a preceding stage of the input buffer circuit so that the gate oxide film of the input buffer circuit can be protected from being damaged by static charges or a voltage which is accidentally generated, without increasing the pattern size of the first parasitic bipolar transistor.
