This study focuses on the performance of solid electrochemical capacitors (ECs) after being subjected to a series of bending tests. A systematic approaching using cyclic voltammetry to track the electrodes and devices reveals the effects of bending parameters include angle, radius and number of cycles.
The resistance of ceramic capacitors against bending loads can be measured with a test as described in IEC 60068-2-21. It is specified to survive a bending of the PCB of 3 mm on a length of 90 mm. The bending tests are always done perpendicular to the length of the capacitor.
Capacitor manufacturers recognize this and typically provide information indicating the capacitors durability to printed circuit board bending through the IEC-384-1 specification. A typical test setup for capacitor bend testing [7, 9] is shown in Fig. 2.
Many companies have experienced failure of multi- layer ceramic capacitors due to printed wiring board bending and have placed controls in their manufacturing process to limit the amount of bending (or flexure) of the PWB to eliminate these failures.
One of the most common causes of capacitor failures is directly attributable to the bending of the printed circuit board (PCB) after solder attachment. Excessive bending will create mechanical stress within the ceramic capacitor that, if sufficient, can result in mechanical cracks.
In the course of failure analysis it is helpful to know that most of the time not only the failed ceramic capacitor shows a crack pattern but all the surrounding cercaps as well. Well-founded knowledge of different crack patterns and failure modes also allows us to discover unsafe bending and warping lines on the PCB.
