Abstract :
Simple equations are provided that satisfy the definitions of five of the most common transient overvoltage test waveforms: the ringwave specified in ANSI C62.41-1980, the fast transient specified in IEC 801, and the 8/20-μs 1.2/50-μs, and 10/1000-μs waveforms. These equations are useful for performing computer simulations of the response of electronic circuits to transient overvoltages
