I have a question for all you technetters. We are experiencing cracking on
certain 1812 ceramic capacitor. The cap cracks on the joint between the
ceramic and the end termination. We already checked our process, following
the vendor's recommendation, and still have between 1-2% cracked just after
the second pass oven. The component is placed in the first pass of a double
sided reflow (no wave solder). Does anybody experienced a situation like
this?
