Abstract
Voltage is a static parameter in present ESD testers and standards with only current specified in time (dI/dt) parameters. Measurements of real and tester HBM discharges identify the previously unknown voltage rate of change (dV/dt) and how this new threat parameter can affect failure levels in some protection circuits.
