X7R >Z5U,Y5V. Y5Vs crack more than NPOs. Ceramic resonators crack often as well. I found that the chop style like the Fancord VPD5 is the lease stressful of the V-Score cutters. We have run as close as 0.025" to the edges with 0805s with no crack

If you have jobs where you can not, there is a company in Japan that makes the best v-groove depanelers called TST, 'guru's in v-groove depanelising'. Their systems can be supplied to reduce stress on cutting to near zero compared to CAB and other lo

We're having trouble with a TO-252 DPAK from Fairchild (MC7805CDT) and our existing land pattern. The land pattern calculator on the IPC site doesn't have anything available that matches it (there are no TO-252's available on the pull downs), and I'

The IPC-EM-782 reads as follows: the adjustment factor is usually intended to increase the Z dimension slightly, but brings the Z maximum up to an even equivalent. Example if Zmax is 2.100mm then you would enter an adjustment factor of .100mm. The ad
