I am trying to source polyprop capacitors, 600V + dc working, 20uF. Can anyone help?? Murray

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.

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?

Hi We are experiencing serious problem with ceramic capacitors. They are with low electrical resistence and the problem is intermittent. We found some of them with micro cracks but not all. What could be the causes for this problem? We are su

Please send us more information about how the glue dots can cause capacitor cracks. I didn�t understand why it could happen. Thanks

Hi all, With regards to the recent thread about jumping sot23.I was wondering if there are any white papers or technical articles on the phenomon of outgassing tantalum capacitors. Regards, Mantis

Has anybody used a MLCC Capacitor called Flexicap from Syfer? They claim they can be flexed twice as much as normal MLCC Capacitors. Do they live up to their claims?

Hi, does anyone know what an L9 on an A-Case tantalum capacitor means? We have a 2.2uf but dont know what the voltage is. Thanks for any response.

Sorry, I was not clear. I am interested in the strain on the PCB during depanelization using a parallel blade shear. And the effect on ceramic capacitors on the PCB. I was not shearing the capacitor off of the PCB. Regards, Jeff

A little more information, please: * Describe the location and pattern of your cracks * Tell us the type of capacitor that you're destroying
