Electrostatic discharge (ESD) is defined as “the sudden and momentary electric current that flows between two objects at different electrical potentials.” ESD causes equipment failure and network ...
Testing electrical systems for electrostatic discharge (ESD) robustness usually involves using IEC 61000-4-2 as a benchmark. This standard defines the stress current waveforms for each voltage level, ...
We’ve all experienced the effect of electrostatic discharge at some point in our lives, the most common case being a tingling sensation one feels after touching a door knob or any metal surface. When ...
Automotive electronic components are designed to have, and are tested to determine, a certain level of immunity to ESD (electrostatic discharge). The tests address a variety of conditions the ...
