(UK) Electrostatic Driver (HV ESD) Range and Noise

T - Technical notes

Abstract:
This note examines how much range will be needed from the electro-static drivers in low-noise operation, and the level of displacement noise that the UK ES-drivers would produce.

ESD suspension noise
Notes and Changes:
v2: Corrected the force coefficient for the ERM (4e-10 vs 2.9e-10), and as a result reduced the bias voltage for noise calculations (kept ESD force noise the same). Fixed error in driver voltage range. Added reference to Weiss' testing of the ESDs.
