The micro-gap discharge as the low voltage ESD shows very fast transition-duration of about 32 ps or less. Furthermore, the breakdown field strength in the gap was very high of about 80 MV/m in low voltage discharging of below 400V. The relationship between the breakdown field strength in the gap and the amplitude of radiated electromagnetic field was examined in experimental study. The amplitude of radiated electromagnetic field was proportion to the breakdown field strength at the gap in the resonance experimental system using the discharge electrode with dipole configuration. In this time, we present an improved experimental system to measure the amplitude of radiated electromagnetic filed in more wideband region using spherical electrodes and a horn antenna. As a result, the amplitude of radiated electromagnetic field is proportion to the discharge voltage from 300V to 620V, and the amplitude of radiated electromagnetic field was according to the diameter of spherical electrode in 1-3GHz frequency bandwidth.
