Soft Termination MLCC Slide 12

In summary, historically, mechanical cracking is the number one cause of failure for MLCCs. These cracks typically occur during assembly, test, or customer use. Samsung offers several solutions to reduce or eliminate this risk by offering open mode and soft termination constructions. Open mode reduces the risk of failing short by reducing the internal active area. For a more robust solution, Samsung also offers soft termination which utilizes an epoxy to absorb and redirect mechanical stress. Soft termination is an application solution for problems such as bending, temperature cycle, and vibration. These solutions are also effective in areas that require a “fail safe” design.
