Have you verified the measurements on the bench with an LCR meter? Chances are you are experiencing aging with these ceramic caps. We have similar issues with X5R and X7R caps. You will see the effects of aging with returns from the field as well

Anyone using "Hitano" 0805 capacitors please check their values before running. I just got stung by parts labeled as 100nf when they were in fact 10nf. We found five out of fifteen reels in the smd room incorrect, who knows what stores will find. P/N

My operator applied flux gel ALPHA WS-609 on MG P/N FTH101XAP (CAP ALUM 100UF 50V 20% SMD) before aqueous washing the PCBAs. Solder paste used was ALPHA WS-820. Now the caps have yellow stains. Any solution to this is appreciated. Tks

Most of you guys probably wish TH would just go away. Maybe for some of you it has. We have some older but very successful WAN controller boards using TH parts so we get to use automated equipment for this. We have an Amistar CI-3000 inserter that so

200 boards/Hr and oven will reflow ~180 boards/Hr but the P&P machine will only place 700-950 CPH | | when setup is taken into account. Minimum pitch is normally .020" and we place an Avg. of 491 TSSOPs and 217 BGAs a month. | | We don't even bother

Dear Friend, SMD E-cap wasn't a Flat ribbon, L or gull wing. Pls. look at SOIC & QFP for Flat ribbon, L or gull wing. So far IPC had confirmed dont have any criteria set specific for SMD E-cap.

Please explain the phenomenon of solder leaching on SMD end caps. What is the root cause? What is the best control method?

Another option you can try is to use solder paste with a dispensing machine and then use a hot air gun to reflow the solder paste on the smd caps

Hi, could anyone tell me the maximum size of an SMD ceramic capacitor that can be assembled on a copper based substrate reliably? The SMD will be reflowed on the copper substrate. The main concern is the CTE mismatch between the ceramic capacitor and

Yageo announced their decision to stop marking SMD resistors back in 2013, and since then we have started to see 0603's that aren't marked, but larger sizes - so far - are still showing a value. 0402's have never been marked, and I doubt they ever w
