ABSTRACT:
A protection device provides to integrated circuits against high voltages. The diode includes a diode connected to provide a safe discharge path for the high voltage currents. The diode is configured so that in reverse bias breakdown occurs across an area portion of its active junction. The device can dissipate a large amount of ESD energy in a minimal area.
