Abstract(in English) The electromagnetic noise caused by an electrostatic discharge (ESD) of charged metals is a major source of malfunction to high-tech equipment. The ESD testing, scheme is being specified in the IEC61000-4-2, which prescribes the current waveform from an ESD-gun through an IEC recommended current detector (Pellegrini calibration target). Our research group previously presented an FDTD modeling of an ESD-gun for contact discharge. For air discharge that provides an actual ESD event, however, the IEC does not give any detailed information about the immunity testing. In this paper, in order to simulate an air discharge testing, we incorporate a lumped parameter spark resistance based on the Rompe-Weizel formula with the above-mentioned FDTD modeling of an ESD gun, . The effectiveness is shown in comparison with wide-band measurement of the discharge current waveforms for air discharge to an SMA connector and a ground plate..
