Fig. 1 is a schematic cross-sectional structure diagram and an equivalent circuit diagram of a conventional SCR electrostatic protection device, and fig. 2 is a schematic top view diagram of the conventional SCR electrostatic protection device. As shown in fig. 1-2, the semiconductor device comprises a substrate 100, wherein the substrate 100 is a P-type substrate. Adjacent N-type well 101 and P-type well 102 are formed in substrate 100, with the upper surface of N-type well 101 being flush with the upper surface of P-type well 102. The N-type well 101 is provided with a first STI isolation region 103, a first N+ doped active region 104, a second STI isolation region 108 and a first P+ doped active region 105 in sequence from left to right, the P-type well 102 is provided with a second N+ doped active region 106, a third STI isolation region 109, a second P+ doped active region 107 and a fourth STI isolation region 110 in sequence from left to right, the adjacent part of the N-type well 101 and the P-type well 102 is provided with a fifth STI isolation region 111, one end of the first STI isolation region 103 away from the first N+ doped active region 104 extends downwards into the left side substrate 100, and one end of the fourth STI isolation region 110 away from the second P+ doped active region 107 extends downwards into the right side P-type well 102. The first n+ doped active region 104 and the first p+ doped active region 105 are connected to the anode, and the second n+ doped active region 106 and the second p+ doped active region 107 are connected to the cathode.

The added partial current paths are shown in fig. 6, and it can be seen from fig. 6 that the SCR electrostatic protection device of the present embodiment has more circuit paths than the existing SCR electrostatic protection device shown in fig. 1. Only the first current path 1, the second current path 2, the third current path 3, the fourth current path 4, and the fifth current path 5 are given in fig. 6 for illustration.
In embodiment 2, the SCR electrostatic protection device provided in this embodiment is based on the SCR electrostatic protection device structure provided in embodiment 1, and the turn-on voltage of the SCR electrostatic protection device is reduced by providing a heavily doped active region 208 crossing the N-type well 101 and the P-type well 102 at the adjacent position of the N-type well 101 and the P-type well 102. Crossing the heavily doped active region 208 is an N-type heavily doped active region or a P-type heavily doped active region.

In the case of an N-type heavily doped active region across heavily doped active region 208, when a large ESD current is injected from the anode, the anode voltage gradually increases until it is higher than the breakdown voltage across heavily doped active region 208 and P-type well 102, and avalanche breakdown occurs across heavily doped active region 208 and P-type well 102, producing a large amount of current. The current flowing through the P-well 102 generates a voltage drop through the resistance of the P-well 102, so that PN junctions formed between a plurality of third N-type heavily doped active regions in the P-well 102 and the P-well 102 are opened, and an NPN tube is opened, and the current flowing through the N-well 101 generates a voltage drop through the resistance of the N-well 101, so that PN junctions formed between a plurality of first P-type heavily doped active regions in the N-well 101 and the N-well 101 are opened, and PNP is opened. The collector current of the NPN tube provides base current for PNP, the collector current of PNP provides base current for NPN, SCR path is formed, and ESD current is discharged.
In the case of a P-type heavily doped active region across heavily doped active region 208, when a large ESD current is injected from the anode, the anode voltage gradually increases until it is higher than the breakdown voltage across heavily doped active region 208 and N-type well 101, and avalanche breakdown occurs across heavily doped active region 208 and N-type well 101, producing a large amount of current.

By setting the polysilicon 209, a PMOS structure can be formed in the N-type well 101, so that the turn-on voltage of the SCR electrostatic protection device is further reduced.
