Awww, don beso tuff on ursef!!! It sounds like you�re thinking correctly with what you�ve done, but it�s possible that the test you ran did not represent your actual production environment as well as you would have liked. So, you just need to "cran

Hi.. Recently, I have received a few reels of 0402 with an old date code ( but still less than 2 years old).I don't have a capability in-house to carry out the solderability test except for the dipping test ( dip the components in the molten solder

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

It is a AVX TAR series. Commonly called a bullet cap and is now most likely obsolete. AVX 9915 is a date code or lot number. 15uM is the value, probably 15 micro farad but not sure.

I'll respond directly to your question about capacitor fabrication in a later posting, but more importantly and possibly more directly in response to the situation many hands touch your capacitors before you do. Each of these stockroom personnel, UP

| Does anyone know why this typically occurs. We have seen capacitors crack due to stressing. Any good solutions? | Regards, | | Steve. Hi steve! Did you check component date-code, reflow profile and component placement height. it has happen to me

Questions are: * What is your concern about this capacitor? * Are you running a leadfree process? * Is the component leadfree? Generally, we are ecstatic when compoents are on tape and not in plastic bags. And if they solder, well, we're dancing in

Jack: You should use your components promptly. Don't store 'em, only bad things will happen to them. 1 You should store all your components, not just your SMD reeled components, so they are not damaged or their solderability decreased. Check the
