Abstract:
     An electrostatic discharge circuit, connected between at least three terminals, the electrostatic discharge circuit including at least one electrostatic discharge circuit element further including at least one circuit element including a body in a floating state. The body in a floating state may provide a path to discharge an electrostatic current. The electrostatic discharge circuit may be a pull-up circuit, a plurality of pull-up circuits, a pull-down circuit, a plurality of pull-down circuits, a power clamp, a plurality of power clamps, or other similar circuit or circuits. The at least three terminals may include one or more power terminals, one or more ground terminals, and/or one or more I/O terminals.
