Introduction

The electrostatic discharge, due to former charge build-ups generated, for example, when moving about

inside a vehicle or getting out of it, has assumed greater significance with the increase of vehicle electronic

modules. Tests simulating the electrostatic discharge of humans, in common use by various industries,

were examined and it was determined that they were not fully applicable to the automotive environment.

As a consequence, tests tailored to the automotive environment were developed.

Tests that simulate an electrostatic discharge (ESD) into a vehicle electrical system are based on the

human ESD model. Sensitive electrical devices can be adversely affected by energy either coupled or

radiated from electrostatic discharges.

This document describes ESD tests that are applicable to both automotive electronic modules and

vehicles.

NOTE 1 When an ESD generator is supplied from an external supply source, AC or DC, or controlled by a separate

unit and this (these) cable(s) is (are) not combined (bundled) with the ESD generator discharge return cable,

unintended current can flow through this (these) cable(s).

The ESD generator should be able to generate a repetition rate of at least 20 discharges per second down

to manual control without any degradation of the discharge current waveform.

The tip voltage should be checked continuously by the generator internal tip voltage supervision.

For contact discharge a grounded discharge resistor with 1MΩ1 MΩ ±20 % resistance from tip to ground

is recommended and prevents pre-pulse-voltage occurrence which can lead to non-reproducible test

results; proper fixing of resistor shall not change the current shape.

In cases where a 2 m length of the discharge return cable is insufficient (e.g. for tall DUTs), a length not

exceeding 3 m may be used and compliance with the waveform specifications shall be guaranteed (e.g.

by the manufacturer or from calibration).

The ESD generator protective earth terminal shall be terminated to the facility protective earth.

Guidance on automatic operated ESD testing can be foundedfound in Annex G.
6.2 Discharge tips
6.2.1 Contact discharge tip

The discharge tip for contact mode ESD is shown in Figure 1. The tip is typically made of stainless steel.

For contact discharge to pins the discharge tip shape can be varied. The diameter of the tip shall be

12± ± 1 mm. Springs for safe contact and a bending of not more than 90° are possible. The current shape

with modified tip shall comply with the given specification. The angle “alpha” shall be between 25° and

40°.

NOTE 1 The peak current level is taken from the measurement system without any data interpolation.

NOTE 2 The target used with this measurement system fulfils the requirements of Clauses A.1 and A.2. An example is defined

in Annex B.

The measurement times (30 ns, 60 ns, 65 ns, 130 ns, 180 ns, 360 ns, 400 ns and 800 ns) are derived from

the resistance-capacitive (RC) time constant −− 40 % (current t ) and + +20 % (current t ), to define two

6.4 Ground plane

The GP (ground plane) shall be metallic sheets (e.g. copper, brass or aluminium) and have a minimum

thickness of 0,25 mm.

NOTE If aluminium is used, care is taken that oxidation does not prevent a good ground connection.

The minimum width of the GP shall be 800 mm, or the width of the entire underneath of the test setup

[DUT and associated equipment (e.g. harness including supply lines, load simulator located on the test

bench and AN(s)), excluding battery and/or power supply] plus 200 mm, whichever is the larger.

The minimum length of the ground plane shall be 1 600 mm or the length of the entire underneath of the

test setup [DUT and associated equipment (e.g. harness including supply lines, load simulator located on

the test bench and AN(s)), excluding battery and/or power supply] plus 200 mm, whichever is the larger.

In case of very large DUT, the above GP dimensions/shape can be adapted by using a GP extension.

Connection between an already existing GP and a GP extension should have a d.c.DC resistance lower or

equal to 2,5 mΩ.
6.5 Field coupling plane

6.6 Insulating block

Insulating blocks, if used, shall be constructed of clean non-hygroscopic material. The relative

permittivity should range between 1 and 5 (e.g. polyethylene). The blocks shall be (50 +/- 5) mm in height

and extend beyond the test setup by at least 20 mm on all sides.
6.7 Dissipative mat

Dissipative support from a material which has a surface resistivity between 10 ΩΩ per square and

10 ΩΩ per square with a height between 2 mm and 3 mm.
6.8 Uncertainty
Refer to IEC 61000-4-2:2008, Annex E.
7 Discharge modes
7.1 General

Discharges can be applied by two discharge modes: contact and air. See Annex D for guidance on air

versus contact discharge modes.
7.2 Contact discharge mode

In the case of contact discharges, the discharge tip (see Figure 1) shall touch a conducting point on the

DUT before the discharge switch is actuated.

Where painted surfaces cover a conducting substrate, the following procedure is used. If the coating is

not declared to be an insulating coating by the equipment manufacturer, then the pointed tip of the

generator penetrates the coating so as to make contact with the conducting substrate.

Foreword

ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards

bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out

through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical

committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International

organizations, governmental and non­governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.

ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of

electrotechnical standardization.

Introduction

The electrostatic discharge, due to former charge build-ups generated, for example, when moving

about inside a vehicle or getting out of it, has assumed greater significance with the increase of vehicle

electronic modules. Tests simulating the electrostatic discharge of humans, in common use by various

industries, were examined and it was determined that they were not fully applicable to the automotive

environment. As a consequence, tests tailored to the automotive environment were developed.

Tests that simulate an electrostatic discharge (ESD) into a vehicle electrical system are based on the

human ESD model. Sensitive electrical devices can be adversely affected by energy either coupled or

radiated from electrostatic discharges.

This document describes ESD tests that are applicable to both automotive electronic modules and

vehicles.

from electrostatic discharge
1 Scope

This document specifies the electrostatic discharge (ESD) test methods necessary to evaluate electronic

modules intended for vehicle use. It applies to discharges in the following cases:

— ESD in assembly;
— ESD caused by service staff;
— ESD caused by occupants.

This document describes test procedures for evaluating both electronic modules on the bench and

complete vehicles. This document applies to all types of road vehicles regardless of the propulsion

system (e.g. spark-ignition engine, diesel engine, electric motor).

The test for electronic modules on the bench described in this document applies to any DUT (powered

by an unshielded power system, DUT powered by a shielded power system, self-powered DUT, etc.).

This document does not apply to pyrotechnic modules.

5 Test location

Shielded enclosures or even absorber-lined shielded enclosures are allowed but not required.

NOTE ESD testing creates transient fields, which can interfere with sensitive electronic devices or receivers,

even at a distance of a few meters. It is advisable that this be considered when choosing a test location.

6 Test apparatus and instrumentation
6.1 ESD generator
The ESD generator characteristics shall be as specified in Table 1.
Table 1 — General ESD generator parameters
Parameter Characteristic

Output voltage range contact discharge mode 2 kV to 15 kV, or as required in the test plan

Output voltage range air discharge mode 2 kV to 25 kV, or as required in the test plan

Output voltage accuracy ≤ 5 %
Output polarity Positive and negative
Rise time of short circuit current in contact discharge mode (10 %
0,7 ns to 1,0 ns
to 90 %)
Holding time ≥ 5 s
Storage capacitances 150 pF, 330 pF
Discharge resistances 330 Ω, 2 000 Ω
See examples in Annex C.

Storage capacitance and discharge resistance are nominal values, ESD generator shall meet discharge current

specifications in 6.3.

NOTE When an ESD generator is supplied from an external supply source, AC or DC, or controlled by a

separate unit and this (these) cable(s) is (are) not combined (bundled) with the ESD generator discharge return

cable, unintended current can flow through this (these) cable(s).

The ESD generator should be able to generate a repetition rate of at least 20 discharges per second

down to manual control without any degradation of the discharge current waveform.

The tip voltage should be checked continuously by the generator internal tip voltage supervision.

For contact discharge a grounded discharge resistor with 1 MΩ ±20 % resistance from tip to ground

is recommended and prevents pre­pulse­voltage occurrence which can lead to non­reproducible test

results; proper fixing of resistor shall not change the current shape.

In cases where a 2 m length of the discharge return cable is insufficient (e.g. for tall DUTs), a length not

exceeding 3 m may be used and compliance with the waveform specifications shall be guaranteed (e.g.

by the manufacturer or from calibration).

The ESD generator protective earth terminal shall be terminated to the facility protective earth.

Guidance on automatic operated ESD testing can be found in Annex G.
6.2 Discharge tips
6.2.1 Contact discharge tip

The discharge tip for contact mode ESD is shown in Figure 1. The tip is typically made of stainless steel.

For contact discharge to pins the discharge tip shape can be varied. The diameter of the tip shall be

12 ± 1 mm. Springs for safe contact and a bending of not more than 90° are possible. The current shape

NOTE 1 The peak current level is taken from the measurement system without any data interpolation.

NOTE 2 The target used with this measurement system fulfils the requirements of Clauses A.1 and A.2. An example is

defined in Annex B.

The measurement times (30 ns, 60 ns, 65 ns, 130 ns, 180 ns, 360 ns, 400 ns and 800 ns) are derived

from the resistance-capacitive (RC) time constant − 40 % (current t ) and +20 % (current t ), to define
