Hello 1. MIL-STD-1275B requires in section 5.4.2.3 “spike imported”, energy content of not less than 15 mJ.
2. Figure 10 of MIL-STD-1725B describes the test circuit for the spike test, including a 0.1µF charge/discharge capacitor. 3. Using the equation E=CV2/2, the capacitor stored energy is 3.1 mJ (not exceeding 15 mJ). 4. Any explanation? Opinions?
