Simulate Electrostatic Discharge on a Virtual Twin

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) is a major risk to electronic devices. ESD occurs when a static charge accumulates, for example, on a moving vehicle or the body of the user and discharges through the device. The transient voltage can cause spurious data signals or even damage or destroy components. Managing ESD is critical to ensure that the device will work safely and reliably over its lifetime and meet electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) regulations.
