ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for simulating electrostatic discharge used for testing and evaluating the durability and sensitivity of electronic parts and assemblies such as IC's, LSIs, and so on, to electrical overstresses and electromagnetic interference caused by electrostatic discharges. In the apparatus, an additional electrostatic capacitance element is connected across a discharge gap within which an electrostatic discharge occurs so that the discharge current through the tested object exhibits a shortened rise time and an increased peak value.
