Figure 19: ESD discharge test example

In this example, if it is suspected that there is a glitch on the communication bus
between two devices during the ESD discharge, then it is helpful to connect to
the signals on the bus and to inspect them during the discharge. Because the
measurement system uses Galvanic isolation, it rejects any interference from the
ESD transient and tolerates the high common mode voltage during the discharge;
the communication bus can be monitored throughout the ESD discharge and any
irregularities can be investigated without interference from the ESD discharge.
