    摘要: A new ESD protection device with an integrated-circuit vertical transistor structure is disclosed, which includes a heavily doped p-type substrate (P+ substrate), a n-type well (N well) in the P+ substrate, a heavily doped p-type diffusion (P+ diffusion) in the N well, a heavily doped n-type diffusion (N+ diffusion) in the N well, and a p-type well (P well) surrounding the N well in the P+ substrate. A bond pad is connected to both the P+ and N+ diffusions, and a ground is coupled to the P+ substrate. Another P+ diffusion is implanted in the N well or another N+ diffusion is implanted in the P well to form a Zener diode, which behaves as a trigger for the PNP transistor when a positive ESD zaps. A parasitic diode is formed at the junction between the P+ substrate and the N well, to bypass a negative ESD stress on the bond pad.
