Flexibility of Multilayer Ceramic Capacitor
■Due to its brittle nature of Ceramic, multilayer ceramic capacitors are more prone to excesses of mechanical stress than other components used in surface mounting. One of the most common causes of capacitor failures is directly attributable to bending of the printed circuit board (PCB) after solder attachment. Excessive bending will create mechanical crack(s) within the ceramic capacitor, see Figure 1. Mechanical cracks, depending upon severity, may not cause capacitor failure during the final assembly test. Over time moisture penetration into the crack can cause a reduction in insulation resistance and eventual dielectric breakdown leading to capacitor failure in service.
