Handling after chip mounted
1. Proper handling of the PCB is recommended since excessive bending and twisting of the PC board may
induce mechanical stress and cause internal cracking of the capacitor.
2. There is a potential of cracking if board is warped due to excessive load from the
check pin

3. Examples of PCB de-panelization jigs:
Higher potential of crack
Lower potential of crack
Bending
Twist
V-groove

The outline of PCB breaking jig is shown below. It is recommended when dividing or breaking PCB
t
hat they are held near the jig where no bending will occur, this way there will be no compressive stress
is applied to the capacitors on the PCB. Do not hold the PCB at a position which is far away from the jig,
tensile stress to the capacitors may cause them to crack.
