Inge,
I disagree. CAF is a conductive filament which grows from the anode to the
cathode. It's growth rate is related to the voltage gradient, so in a low
voltage circuit you may never create CAF. When you do create CAF and it
bridges the anode and the cathode, electrons flow rapidly heating up the
laminate causing it to char.

Subject: Re: [TN] CAF, between a signal pint and ground
Because you got two 'YES' I say 'NO'. (I can see many rise eyebrows. What
will happen now? The question was 'can there be exothermic damage?'. My njet
is based on a special condition, which you may have or not have, namely the
impedance of the pathway. Some circuits can have 1. Extremely low voltage
2. Very high resistivity. Such a combination will not produce enough energy
to start a exothermic issue. Just a footnote.
