Electrolyte evaporation is the primary wear-out mechanism in electrolytic capacitors and is caused by high temperature s within the capacitor core. In the case of metallized film capacitors, self-healing or localized dielectric breakdown due to overvoltage is the main wear-out mechanism.
The capacitor body is slight-ly deformed by the compressive forces of the centering jaws. This deformation is similar to pressing on the ends of a deck of cards, and has three inflection points for this type of compression.
This characteristic is assumed to be due to the deterioration of the dielectric oxide layer at high temperatures, which reduces the insulation of the capacitor, and applying a DC voltage to a capacitor in this state causes the leakage current to increase. How to do, what to do?
Thermal expansion of the metal material causes the deflection of the cascaded chevrons, which leads to the capacitance variation. By detecting the capacitance value at different temperatures, the TEC value of the metal materials can be calculated.
And it depends on the type of capacitor, but factors that can cause open failures include vibration and shock during mounting on the board and transportation, as well as placement of the device on the board. When a capacitor fails a short circuit (Figure 3), DC current flows through the capacitor and the shorted capacitor behaves like a resistor.
The primary failure mechanism of an electrolytic capacitor is the evaporation of the electrolyte due to thermal overstress. A capacitance decrease and an ESR increase are caused by the loss of electrolyte, by diffusion (as vapor) through the sealing material in the wear-out failure period.
