    Abstract: An electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection device includes a substrate including a plurality of active fins and a plurality of grooves. The ESD protection device includes an insulation layer on the active fins and the grooves, and a gate electrode on the active fins. The ESD protection device includes a first impurity region adjacent to a first side of the gate electrode, and a second impurity region adjacent to a second side of the gate electrode. The second side of the gate electrode may be arranged opposite to the first side. The ESD protection device includes an electrode pattern of a capacitor overlapping the first impurity region, a resistor overlapping the second impurity region, and a connection structure electrically connecting the electrode pattern, the gate electrode, and the resistor to each other.

    Abstract: An electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection device includes a substrate including a plurality of fins extending in a first direction, with an insulation layer on the fins. A gate electrode extending in a second direction, an electrode pattern of a capacitor, and a resistor are on the insulation layer. A drain is on a first side of the gate electrode, and a source is on a second side of the gate electrode. A connection structure electrically connects the electrode pattern, the gate electrode and the resistor. The electrode pattern is on the first side or the second side of the gate electrode, and the resistor is on the other of the first side or the second side. At least a portion of the resistor extends in the second direction.
