Abstract :
This paper gives solutions to the differential equations of the FICDM tester. Data and theory show that the peak current for FICDM tests increases as the DUT capacitance increases, but approaches a maximum that is a function of the tester field plate capacitance and becomes rather independent of the DUT capacitance.
