Subject: [TN] Chips in Large MLCC's


We are trying to make a determination of potential long term damage caused
by small chips in large multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCC). We're talking
about leaded, .60" X .120", stacked three high MLCC's. The obvious chips
that we are rejecting are at the edge with the top surface area of about .1"
X .05" X .01" deep.

IPC-A-610 talks a little bit about chips and cracks to small chip components
but does not really address these big guys. It has been our experience in
the past that any crack (chip) can propagate, particularly with moisture
present, into a rather exciting failure.

The thing we are having trouble with is defining what is an acceptable
appearance for these parts. The chip may not go down to the substrate but
we're still concerned about long term effects on the ceramic. If any of you
can point us to a document that might provide some guidance it sure would
appreciated.

Thanks,

Ken Bloomquist
