The Relationship Between Capacitor Cracking/Shorting on PCBA and Design Factors
Abstract Capacitor cracking and subsequent short-circuiting on printed circuit board assemblies (PCBAs) are common failure modes that can lead to catastrophic system failures. While manufacturing and handling processes often receive blame, design-related factors play a significant role in these failures. This paper explores the relationship between PCBA design and capacitor cracking/shorting, analyzing key design considerations…
