power supply when the first switch (SW1) is on.
Now that the capacitor is charged, the second
switch (SW2) is on while SW1 switches off. The
voltage stored in the capacitor is then applied
through RS, the current limiting resistor, onto the
device under test (DUT). In ESD tests, the SW2
switch is pulsed so that the device under test
receives a duration of voltage.
For the Human Body Model, the current limiting
resistor (R ) and the source capacitor (C ) are
S
S
1.5kW an 100pF, respectively. For IEC-1000-4-
2, the current limiting resistor (RS) and the source
capacitor (CS) are 330W an 150pF, respectively.
The higher CS value and lower RS value in the
IEC1000-4-2 model are more stringent than the
Human Body Model. The larger storage capacitor
injects a higher voltage to the test point when
SW2 is switched on. The lower current limiting
resistor increases the current charge onto the test
point.
RS and RV add up to 330Ω for IEC1000-4-2.
