# Open-hardware for electrostatic discharge testing (O-ESD)
O-ESD is open-hardware project for (pre-compliance) [ESD immunity testing](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEC_61000-4-2) in accordance with [IEC/EN 61000&#8209;4&#8209;2](https://webstore.iec.ch/en/publication/68954) standard. It is a stand-alone battery-powered portable device that can produce low-energy voltage pulses in the range from –15&nbsp;kV to 15&nbsp;kV. All electronic devices must be immune to a certain level of ESD, as ESD happens every day between humans and electronic devices.<br>

The shaper is a separate PCB connected to the motherboard (with 4-wire cable) and the cascade (with 2-wire cable with XT60 connector). The main purpose of the shaper is to generate pulse according to IEC/EN 61000&#8209;4&#8209;2.<br>

In order to prevent losses from the corona effect, all conductive surfaces on the assembled shaper (except the flat-cable connector) can be coated with corona-protective insulating material.<br>
