Possible Root Cause of Failure

In ESD tests, especially contact discharge tests, most of the ESD noise is directly injected into the connector shield. As this is also the system's connector ground, ground bounce is a likely effect. This results in common noise injected into the system. Therefore providing a low impedance path to ground for the ESD noise is crucial to minimize impact on the signal lines and improve ESD performance.

In both direct and indirect contact ESD tests, there is potential radiative ESD noise coupling to the system. Therefore, verifying minimum conducted exposure of the signal lines is also crucial for improved ESD performance.
