Hi All, We encounter capacitor crack in the ICT, it contributes 2% of the failure. We are not sure whether these crack coming from the SMT. All these crack having the same pattern. Please refer to attached file. Anybody encounter the same thing befo

Yes, it does look like a typical crack due to mechanical overloading (bending) of teh component. Usually because of the board flexing Vlad

We have seen a similar problem. Turned out to be mechanical stress on the component caused by the method of location and clamping at ICT. Where is the component located on the assembly? Poorly adjusted clamping pillars on clamshell fixtures can cause

i just find the gap inside the component from the cross-section, it indeed exists the interal crack, not solder joint crack. but why the failed capacitor is well after some time. and the other suspicion is the quality of the component.

Flex cracking under the terminations is generally regarded as one of the primary causes of failure of ceramic chips. If you can see cracks in the solder joints from board flex, those chips are certainly strongly suspect, and you must assume there is

thanks, Dave. who are specialized in mechnical stress distribution? because I find the gap in the capacitor, but why? If the crack is caused by the exteral mechnical stress, which shape will be formed, zigzag or linear?

a leakage exists in the capacitor net (1206), which cause the voltage down so much. the process flow is: printing-placement-reflow-hand load-wave-depanel-FT. I find possible stress maybe exists in the depanel stage, does the extra stress cause the ca

Hi all, lately ofen I have problem with cracked ceramic capacitors.We use 0805 and 0603 cap. Samsung.ICT measure diferent capacity of nominal.If I tray to desoldering component , then component cracked.I think , that the reason is the moisture in com

Fine crack in multi-layer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) may not be detectable by capacitance check.Could anyone out there advise which is the most appropriate method to test/detect fine crack ?
