Application note

Figure 9.

The second model is IEC 1000-4-2 and is used to simulate the reaction of the device on

equipment when subjected to electrostatic discharges, which may occur from personnel to

objects near vital instrumentation. Direct (Contact) and indirect (Air Gap) applications of

discharges to the equipment under test (EUT) are possible. Test characteristics are shown

in circuit, waveform and table below.
