An electrostatic discharge (ESD) protector includes a first high heat-conductive substrate, a second high heat-conductive substrate, a varistor layer, and a plurality of via-hole electrodes. The first high heat-conductive substrate is provided with a plurality of first through-holes. The second high heat-conductive substrate is provided with a plurality of second through-holes. The varistor layer that is mainly composed of zinc oxide is disposed between the first high heat-conductive substrate and the second high heat-conductive substrate. The varistor layer includes internal electrodes. Each of via-hole electrodes penetrates the varistor layer and fills both one of the first through-holes and one of the second through-holes to couple both the ones to each other.
