An electrostatic discharge Free Bootstrapped BICMOS inverter Circuit Based on parasitic diode

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) free bootstrapped BiCMOS inverter circuit is proposed. The proposed driver circuit uses the bootstrapped technique; the transistor base voltage is higher than the supply voltage. The input of circuit is arranged to protect the electrostatic discharge problem, and the output waveform is able to have full swing. The proposed circuit consumes low power with small delay time. The transistors in the circuit operate with high performance and efficiency.
