Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) International electrotechnical commission (IEC) prescribes an immunity test (IEC61000-4-2) of electronic equipment for electrostatic discharges (ESDs), and specified the waveform of a discharge current from human ESDs, which shall be calibrated for contact discharges of an ESD-generator (ESD gun) onto an IEC recommended calibration target with a transfer impedance of 1. For the specified current waveform, however, it cannot always be injected onto actual equipment under test (EUT). In the present study, to estimate a discharge current for contact discharges of an ESD gun onto EUT, we proposed an equivalent circuit, which consists of a current source of the IEC specified current, an output impedance of the ESD gun and an injecting point impedance of EUT. We first measured the output impedance of an ESD gun on the standard arrangement with a network analyzer, and estimated injected currents for contact discharges onto circular metal plates with different sizes used in lieu of EUT, which allow one to calculate their injecting point impedance. As a result, we confirmed that estimated currents agree well with those obtained from induced output voltages of a magnetic filed probe placed in close proximity to the ESD gun. In order to examine the feasibility of the above equivalent circuit, we measured output impedance of an ESD gun with respect to testing arrangements, and estimated the corresponding injected currents onto a circular metal plate with a diameter of 30 mm, which shows that the output impedance in the frequency from 10 MHz to 300 MHz varies twofold and 2.5 times at most by the arrangements of he ESD gun and earth return cable, respectively, while the variability in estimated currents is small by less than 5 % in peaks and 20 % more or less in current falling parts, respectively, compared to the case for the standard arrangement.
