Hi iv40 Try with NIC ceramic capacitor that was tested in wet process. We hav succeed with these cap after we found some failure with Kemet ceramic Cap which tested in dry test process while manufacturing.

We also encountered the crack case in multi layer Ceramic Cap,0603 after touch up. Most failure were on the terminals. Previously, we used 0805 instead 0603.that time, failure were very few.

Please describe the location and appearance of the crack

check your de-panelling process if you are using break-out tabs or V scoring.

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

Try heating a blank board on a hotplate to 183 deg C. with a board this thick, if the layer construction is poorly balanced, it may bend enough in the region of the ceramic capacitor for the soldered joints to crack it on cooling to ambient.

Thanks, Dennis. That is a good idea, but I have problem :) - our logistic department lookig for cheap components...What other mnfg of cap you use? Regards,

I had cracking caps from the ICT and a variation in the length of the probes (due to wear and tear) that press down the PCB. That put lots of mechanical stress on the PCB. So have also a close look at the ICT, or another other test fixtures you use.

OK, component wide portion runs with the conveyor, so really both sides should heat and cool at the same rate. The crack is at the termination between end cap and ceramic body and run vertically up the end cap, so when we remove the cap it comes of
