ABSTRACT:
An electrostatic discharge protective apparatus for an integrated circuit having normally on semiconductor devices mutually connecting input/output pads and the power in bonding pad to prevent stray electrostatic discharges from damaging the integrated circuit components when the integrated circuit is not powered on. All adjacent input/output pads are connected to each other by a normally on transistor. Each pad is additionally connected to a power supply pad by a normally on transistor.
