Abstract
An ESD protection circuit for low temperature poly-silicon thin film transistor panel and a display panel using the same. The feature of the ESD protection circuit comprises an ESD detection circuit disposed between a first power line and a second power line, for outputting an enable signal when an ESD event occurs in the first power line; and a discharge device having a control terminal coupled to the output of the ESD detection circuit, for providing a discharge path between the first and second power lines when the control terminal receives the enable signal.
