ABSTRACT:
This invention provides an electrostatic damage protection device which can protects a device to be protected enough from an electrostatic damage and prevents damages of protection transistors themselves. A N-channel type first MOS transistor and a N-channel type second MOS transistor serving as protection transistors are connected in series between an output terminal and a ground potential. On the other hand, a P-channel type third MOS transistor and a P-channel type fourth MOS transistor serving as protection transistors are connected in series between a high power supply potential and the output terminal. These first, second, third, and fourth MOS transistors are formed of low withstand voltage MOS transistors.
