Abstract

See full text

An integrated circuit includes a T-coil circuit, a silicon-controlled rectifier (SCR), and a signal-loss prevention circuit. The T-coil circuit is coupled to an input/output (I/O) pad and an internal circuit. The SCR is coupled to the T-coil circuit and the internal circuit. The signal-loss prevention circuit is coupled to the T-coil circuit and the SCR. The signal-loss prevention circuit includes a resistor coupled to the T-coil circuit and the SCR. An electrostatic current flows through the resistor and turns on the SCR. The signal-loss prevention circuit may also include a diode circuit coupled to the T-coil circuit and the SCR. The diode circuit is configured to prevent signal loss.
