“…The transient EM fields produced by the ESD generator during the discharge procedure are also important factors in the induced ESD coupling on the EUT [4,9,10,13,[20][21][22]. Experimental methods [23][24][25], full wave numerical modeling [26][27][28][29][30][31], circuit modeling [5,[32][33][34][35][36], and hybrid simulations of the EUT and ESD source [25,30] can all be used to carry out the ESD coupling study. However, it appears that modeling full wave has some constraints in computation resources and modeling accuracy based on the state of the art [12].…”

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) is a physical phenomenon that may destroy electronic components due to its high discharge current that may reach a few amperes in just a few ns. However, another major aspect of ESD is the related high-frequency electromagnetic (E/M) fields radiated by the ESD event. The electronic equipment that is affected by the ESD phenomenon is additionally affected by the induced voltages caused by these E/M fields. This is the reason that the current version of the IEC 61000-4-2 on ESD has a special reference to these fields and the measurement setup. Starting with the classical formulation of these fields, this paper reviews the most popular techniques for calculating the ESD electromagnetic fields while also emphasizing the best methods for minimizing computational effort. There is also a separate section for the measurement techniques that have been applied in research works, whose outcomes could be implemented in the next revision of the IEC 61000-4-2. It is extremely important for the next revision to include these measurement setups and the E/M field sensors because the ESD generators should comply with certain values related to the E/M fields they produce.

“…There are many circuit engineering models that implement the forms of the ESD current pulses. These models allow calculating currents and voltages in the REE circuit analysis [9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16]. In general, ESD can lead to partial or complete failure of REE, as well as to the interruption of its functioning.…”

It is known that electrostatic discharge (ESD) is one of the frequent causes of integrated circuits failure and loss of spacecraft. However, the danger is not only the pulse itself, but also the crosstalk from it at the near (NEXT) and far (FEXT) ends. To investigate the possibility of their attenuating by meander line (ML) with a broad-side coupling, a coupled microstrip line (MSL) was studied. As a result, the structure with a protected active line appeared to be the most promising. Also, the levels of NEXT and FEXT in it do not exceed 2 and 1.5% of half of the e.m.f. at s=1000 µm, and when s=100 µm – 10 and 3%. In addition to evaluating signal attenuation, N-norms were analyzed as well. The most noteworthy is the non-linear nature of the change in N2 depending on s. It is also notable that the proposed protection of the line from crosstalk leads to a decrease in N1, N2, and N5. However, N3 and N4 increase at the same time.

S-parameter based modeling of system-level ESD test bed

Abstract: The IEC 61000-4-2 test bed is modeled with circuit elements extracted from S-parameter measurements. Simulated current waveforms are consistent with measurement for both battery operated and tethered equipment-under-test without customizing the model parameters for each case.
