[0024] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, and examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and cannot be understood as limiting the present invention.

[0025] Reference below Figure 1-Figure 3 The electrostatic discharge immunity test device 100 of the ungrounded device 200 according to the embodiment of the utility model is described. The ungrounded device 200 may include an insulating support 20. The ungrounded device 200 is suitable for being placed on the insulating support 20. The ungrounded device 200 may be a television, a mobile phone, or other equipment. Figure 1 As shown, the insulating support 20 may be an insulating table, and the ungrounded device 200 is placed on the insulating table. Figure 2 As shown, the insulating support member 20 may be an insulating plate, and the ungrounded device 200 is placed on the insulating plate.

[0026] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the electrostatic discharge immunity testing device 100 according to the embodiment of the utility model includes: an electrostatic discharge generator 10, which is suitable for discharging static electricity to an ungrounded device 200; a discharge cable 30, which has a first connection end 31 and a second connection end 32, the first connection end 31 is suitable for connecting to the ungrounded device 200, and the second connection end 32 is suitable for grounding, and the discharge cable 30 has an on-off switch 33, which is used to turn on or off the discharge cable 30.

[0027] Among them, the ungrounded device 200 is suitable for being placed on the insulating support 20, for example: the insulating support 20 can be an insulating pad, an insulating mounting frame, etc., but the utility model is not limited thereto, and the insulating support 20 can also be other types of supports, as long as the insulating support 20 can play an insulating role. Therefore, the ungrounded device 200 is placed on the insulating support 20, and the device under test can be ungrounded. The electrostatic discharge generator 10 can be a device such as an electrostatic gun, and the electrostatic discharge generator 10 is suitable for discharging static electricity to the ungrounded device 200. Specifically, the electrostatic discharge generator 10 and the ungrounded device 200 can be plugged and connected. When the electrostatic discharge generator 10 and the ungrounded device 200 are connected, the electrostatic discharge generator 10 can discharge static electricity to the ungrounded device 200. It can be explained that the size of the static electricity discharged by the electrostatic discharge generator 10 to the ungrounded device 200 can be set and adjusted according to the different ungrounded devices 200 tested, so as to ensure the accuracy of the test results.

[0028] The discharge cable 30 can connect the ungrounded device 200 to the earth. Specifically, the discharge cable 30 may have a first connection end 31 and a second connection end 32. The first connection end 31 is suitable for connecting to the ungrounded device 200, and the second connection end 32 is suitable for grounding. The discharge cable 30 also has an on-off switch 33. The on-off switch 33 is located between the first connection end 31 and the second connection end 32. The on-off switch 33 is used to turn on or off the discharge cable 30. Specifically, when the electrostatic discharge generator 10 discharges static electricity to the ungrounded device 200, the on-off switch 33 is disconnected to ensure that the ungrounded device 200 is not grounded. When the electrostatic discharge generator 10 has finished discharging static electricity to the ungrounded device 200, the on-off switch 33 is closed to ground the ungrounded device 200 to discharge the charge, thereby discharging the charge on the ungrounded device 200, avoiding the phenomenon of accumulated charge damaging the ungrounded device 200, and thus improving the accuracy of the test results. This cycle is repeated many times, and the effect of evaluating the electrostatic resistance level of the ungrounded device 200 can be achieved.

[0029] According to the electrostatic discharge immunity test device 100 of the embodiment of the utility model, a discharge cable 30 connected to the ungrounded device 200 is provided in the electrostatic discharge immunity test device 100, and the discharge cable 30 has an on-off switch 33 for turning on or off the discharge cable 30. When the electrostatic discharge generator 10 discharges static electricity to the ungrounded device 200, the on-off switch 33 is disconnected to ensure that the ungrounded device 200 is not grounded. After the electrostatic discharge generator 10 finishes discharging static electricity to the ungrounded device 200, the on-off switch 33 is closed to allow the discharge cable 30 to discharge the accumulated charge on the ungrounded device 200, thereby avoiding the phenomenon that the accumulated charge damages the ungrounded device 200, thereby improving the accuracy of the test result. By repeating this cycle multiple times, the effect of evaluating the electrostatic resistance level of the ungrounded device 200 can be achieved.

[0030] According to some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 3 As shown, the discharge cable 30 may also have a plurality of discharge resistors 34, for example, the discharge cable 30 may have two, three, four, etc. discharge resistors 34, but the present invention is not limited thereto, and the discharge cable 30 may also have other numbers of discharge resistors 34, as long as the discharge cable 30 has a plurality of discharge resistors 34. The on-off switch 33 and the plurality of discharge resistors 34 may be connected in series to the discharge cable 30. With such a configuration, the components on the discharge cable 30 are simply connected, the connection complexity of the electrostatic discharge immunity test device 100 can be reduced, the accuracy of the test results can be improved, and the discharge performance of the discharge cable 30 can be improved.

[0031] According to some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 3 As shown, the plurality of discharge resistors 34 may have an end resistor 35 close to the first connection terminal 31, and the on-off switch 33 may be located between the end resistor 35 and the ungrounded device 200. Such a configuration can improve the accuracy of the electrostatic discharge immunity testing device 100, thereby improving the accuracy of the test results.

[0032] According to some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 3 As shown, the spacing distance between the end resistor 35 and the first connection end 31 is D1, which satisfies the relationship: 0mm<D1≤20mm, that is, the spacing distance D1 between the end resistor 35 and the first connection end 31 can be any value between 0mm-20mm, for example: the spacing distance D1 between the end resistor 35 and the first connection end 31 can be 1mm, 2mm, 2.1mm, 5mm, 12mm, 18mm, 20mm and other values, but the utility model is not limited thereto, the spacing distance D1 between the end resistor 35 and the first connection end 31 can also be other values ​​between 0mm-20mm, as long as the spacing distance D1 between the end resistor 35 and the first connection end 31 is a value between 0mm-20mm. When the spacing distance between the end resistor 35 and the first connection end 31 is less than or equal to 20mm, after the on-off switch 33 is closed, it is beneficial to quickly discharge the charge on the ungrounded device 200, which can improve the test accuracy of the electrostatic discharge immunity test device 100, thereby improving the accuracy of the test results.

[0033] According to some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 3As shown, the spacing distance between two adjacent bleeder resistors 34 in the plurality of bleeder resistors 34 can be the same. This setting can improve the test accuracy of the electrostatic discharge immunity test device 100, thereby improving the accuracy of the test results. It can be explained that the value of the spacing distance between two adjacent bleeder resistors 34 in the plurality of bleeder resistors 34 can be set and adjusted according to different situations.

[0034] According to some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 3 As shown, the resistance of the discharge resistor 34 can be 470 kΩ. With this configuration, the discharge cable 30 can discharge the charge on the ungrounded device 200 in a short time, thereby reducing the time of the electrostatic discharge immunity test of the ungrounded device 200, thereby improving the test efficiency of the electrostatic discharge immunity test device 100.

[0035] According to some embodiments of the utility model, when the electrostatic discharge generator 10 discharges static electricity to the ungrounded device 200, the on-off switch 33 is in the off state so that the ungrounded device 200 can be ungrounded, thereby realizing the electrostatic discharge immunity test of the ungrounded device 200. When the electrostatic discharge generator 10 completes the discharge, the on-off switch 33 is in the closed state so that the ungrounded device 200 can be grounded, thereby discharging the charge on the ungrounded device 200, avoiding the phenomenon of accumulated charge damaging the ungrounded device 200, thereby improving the accuracy of the test results. By repeating this cycle multiple times, the effect of evaluating the electrostatic resistance level of the ungrounded device 200 can be achieved.

[0036] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the time for the electrostatic discharge generator 10 to discharge static electricity to the ungrounded device 200 each time can be T1, and the time for the on-off switch 33 to be closed each time is T2, satisfying the relationship: T1≤T2. This setting can ensure that the time for the electrostatic discharge generator 10 to discharge static electricity to the ungrounded device 200 each time is shorter than the time for the discharge cable 30 to discharge the charge each time, thereby ensuring that after the electrostatic discharge generator 10 finishes discharging static electricity to the ungrounded device 200 each time, the charge on the ungrounded device 200 can be discharged cleanly, thereby avoiding the accumulation of charge on the ungrounded device 200, thereby improving the accuracy of the test results, achieving the effect of evaluating the electrostatic resistance level of the ungrounded device 200, and reducing the risk of damage to the ungrounded device 200.

[0037] Specifically, the test time can be 2 seconds, for example: at 0-1 second, the electrostatic discharge generator 10 discharges static electricity to the ungrounded device 200, and the on-off switch 33 is disconnected during the process of the electrostatic discharge generator 10 discharging static electricity to the ungrounded device 200. After the electrostatic discharge generator 10 finishes discharging static electricity to the ungrounded device 200, at 1-2 seconds, the on-off switch 33 is closed to allow the discharge cable 30 to discharge the charge on the ungrounded device 200.

[0038] At 2-3 seconds, the electrostatic discharge generator 10 discharges static electricity to the ungrounded device 200 again, and the on-off switch 33 is disconnected during the process of the electrostatic discharge generator 10 discharging static electricity to the ungrounded device 200. After the electrostatic discharge generator 10 finishes discharging static electricity to the ungrounded device 200, at 3-4 seconds, the on-off switch 33 is closed to allow the discharge cable 30 to discharge the charge on the ungrounded device 200. This cycle is repeated many times, and the effect of evaluating the static resistance level of the ungrounded device 200 can be achieved.

[0039] It can be explained that the time interval between multiple consecutive discharges is recommended to be at least one second, thereby reducing the risk of damage to the electrostatic discharge immunity testing device 100 and thereby increasing the service life of the electrostatic discharge immunity testing device 100 .

[0040] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the on-off switch 33 is disconnected for a time period of T3 each time, satisfying the relationship: T1=T3. This arrangement can ensure that each time the electrostatic discharge generator 10 discharges static electricity to the ungrounded device 200, the discharged static electricity will not be discharged, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the test results.

[0041] According to some embodiments of the utility model, the on-off switch 33 can be constructed as a timing switch. The use of the timing switch can set the closing time and the opening time of the on-off switch 33 before testing, thereby reducing the tediousness of the tester's operation during the test process, avoiding tester errors, and thus improving the accuracy of the test results.
