An electrostatic discharge protection device includes a voltage division adjustment circuit connected to a signal input end and generating a voltage signal. A trigger circuit is connected to the voltage division adjustment circuit to output a trigger signal. A detection circuit generates a detection signal according to the voltage signal. A control circuit generates an output signal according to the trigger signal and the detection signal, to control first and second switch circuits. The first and second inverters are respectively connected to the first and second switch circuits to control a discharge circuit. When static electricity is inputted into the signal input end, the output signal transitions to a high-voltage level to turn on the discharge circuit for discharging. The trigger signal transitions to a low-voltage level, to control the control circuit to extend output time of the output signal at the high-voltage level.
