Hi All, I am new the PCBA process fabrication. I have found many cracks in the PCB after we have cross sections analysis. The cracking has same kind of pattern. It happens betwen the solder and the PCB, or between the solder and the part, BUT not be

What process steps have been completed before the cross-section? What type of devices have solder cracks? Are the cracks found after just normal processing or after some type of validation testing? It is very unlikely to be a heating/cooling issue

Well super, super, sorry I had cap locks on - no yelling intended. Let's keep this a technical forum. Many manufacturers charge to register their equipment prior to selling parts or providing service. Agree or dis-agree with this practice it is a re

I just found this. https://www.avx.com/docs/techinfo/CeramicCapacitors/cracks.pdf It is extremely dated but still interesting. From the conclusion; " but both thermal shock and overstress cracks propagate at angles near 45°. Defective components h

The vast majority of issues I have seen are from depaneling with a PCB seperator. Try placing a row of tightly spaced unplated holes adjacent to the edge that the crack parts are being found out (assuming they are within .5" or so of the score line)

Dear Eric, in my opinion this is a very complex problem, that require to know many details for answer. For example : 1) what about the PCB finishing ? Have you verify the quality of they ? 2) what about the solder paste (the exactly composition)? 3)

Cracked capacitors usually are not found at ICT. Unless the cap is completely cracked, the capacitance may not change much, and the usual failure mode is a leakage current. This is usually only seen in ESS type testing, when temperature and humidit

As you probably know, x-ray inspection has problems positivly identifying cracks or delamination. This task is more suited to scanning laser acoustical microscopy but the cost is very high. It has been our experience that cracks are associated with t
