IEC 61000-4-2 air discharge description and results

For an air discharge, 4 zap locations, at each corner of the antenna, have been taken (see

Figure 13).

Figure 13. Zap locations for air discharge

After the shoot sequence (4x +/-10 shoots, so 80 shoots), the M24LR16ER operation is

tested with a reader to check if there is no modification before and after the ESD test.

ESD tests results show that the M24LR16E, protected with the DSILC6-4SC6, is compliant

with IEC 61000-4-2, level 4 (i.e. +/-15 kV air), and withstands ESD surges higher than 16 kV.
