In this paper we present a comparison between two non-destructive techniques for crack detection in MLCCs. First, if a type II MLCC is biased with a DC field, the capacitor becomes temporarily ‘poled’ and can act as a transducer. This is induced by a residual piezoelectric effect used in the impedance spectroscopy method. Second, we used a scanning ultrasonic system working in the 10–100 MHz frequency bandwidth. To understand the ultrasonic signature, we used time-of-flight (TOF) detection with short-time Fourier transform (STFT) analysis to determine the depth and nature of defects with high accuracy. An application of digital signal processing to the characterization of defects is presented for a lot of MLCCs with cracks defects. For comparison, the same lot was tested with the piezoelectric method. The two techniques are closely correlated. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 相似文献

Environmental regulations and increasingly challenging design objectives have prompted the search for alternative materials
in microelectronics. Employing these materials alters the reliability profile and performance characteristics of the electronic
components into which they are integrated. This article explores how mechanical stresses impact the reliability of ceramic
dielectric bodies of multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCCs) when the material, shape, and thickness of the MLCC terminations
were varied. The termination material, termination geometry, and thickness of the ceramic were varied. Results were obtained
using finite element analysis, and a reliability model was developed and validated. A preliminary investigation indicated
a relationship between the selection of materials used for capacitor termination and the emergence of cracks. Stresses that
occurred when boards were subjected to conditions including cyclic bending, vibrations, temperature cycling, and high-g loading
correlated to the appearance of cracks on the bottom of the capacitor in proximity to the termination. 相似文献

The silver paste with ceramics addition as end termination was performed on multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCC) based on ZnO–B2O3 + Zn0.95Mg0.05TiO3 + 0.25TiO2 ceramic (ZnBO-ZMT′) with Ag95–Pd05 internal electrodes. A green sheet was prepared by tape casting using the ZnBO-ZMT′ powders. Ag95–Pd05 was attached on the green sheet as an internal electrode. After lamination, the green chips were pre-sintered at 800 °C for 1 h, then samples were dipped the external electrodes and were cofired together at 900 °C for 2 h. There is no extra curing process, so the production cost may be cut down and thermal shock of the MLCCs may be reduced. To improve the mismatch between end termination and dielectric body during sintering, the silver paste with different amounts of ceramics, e.g., 20, 30 and 40 wt.%, was added in this study. The mechanical and electrical properties of the MLCCs were investigated subsequently. The results showed that end termination with 40 wt.% ceramic addition has good performances on mechanical properties of MLCC, but equivalent series resistance (ESR) is a little bit higher compared to end termination with 20 and 30 wt.% ceramic addition. 相似文献

Well size-controlled copper fine particles (diameter: 100-300?nm) were used as the inner electrode material of multilayered ceramic capacitors (MLCCs). The particles were dispersed in terpineol to form a printing paste with 50?wt% copper particles. The MLCC precursor modules prepared by the layer-by-layer printing of copper and BaTiO(3) particles were cosintered. Detailed observation of the particles, paste, and MLCCs before and after sintering was carried out by electron microscopy. The sintering temperature of Cu-MLCC was as low as 960?°C. The permittivity of these MLCCs was successfully measured with the copper inner layers. 相似文献

We establish a systematic methodology to design and analyse electromagnetic components such as advanced multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCCs) using the finite element (FE) method. We employ a coupled formulation to compute the interaction between the electric and magnetic fields. Unlike a linear distribution of current assumed in the circuit model, an accurate electrostatic solution to model the entire advanced MLCCs (4 × 4 × 27 = 432 cells) is presented. The FE solution is used to compute the lumped parameters for a range of frequencies. These lumped parameters are then used to compute the parasitic elements of the MLCCs. We introduce two algorithms to efficiently analyse the behaviour of a capacitor with changing frequency. The lower frequency (much below the self‐resonant frequency of the capacitor) algorithm separates the effect of the electric and magnetic fields and reduces the computational effort required to solve the FE problem, whereas, the high‐frequency algorithm couples the effect between the electric and the magnetic fields. We use these algorithms in conjunction with a new multiple scale technique to effectively determine the small values of R, L and C in MLCCs. The formulation, the implementation, and the numerical results demonstrate the efficacy of the present FE formulation and establish a systematic methodology to design and analyse advanced electromagnetic components.

A novel DC/AC current sensor works on the fluxgate principle. The core in the form of a 7/10-mm ring made of electrodeposited permalloy is sandwiched in the middle of a printed circuit board (PCB), whereas the sensor excitation winding is also integrated in the copper layers of the PCB. To lower the sensor power consumption, the excitation winding was tuned by a parallel capacitor. The peak-peak/rms ratio of 5.2 was achieved for the excitation frequency of 25 kHz. The open-loop sensor has 100-mV/A sensitivity; the characteristics have a linearity error of 10% and hysteresis below 0.1% in the 1-A range. 相似文献

Tensile stress can develop in concrete when rest raint prevents the concrete from shrinking freely in response to drying, chemical reaction, or temperature reduction. When these tensile stresses exceed the tensile strength of the concrete, visible cracking may be expected to occur. While several test methods have been developed to assess a material's potential for early-age shrinkage cracking, this paper describes the use of the ‘ring-test’ for assessing the performance of a fiber reinforced concrete. An equation is presented that enables the residual stress that develops in the concrete ring specimen to be estimated. This expression is used to approximate the stress that is transferred across a crack. It is shown that for conventional fiber reinforced concrete (i.e., the mixtures described in this paper) the pre-peak mechanical properties (elastic modulus, splitting tensile strength and free shrinkage) are not influenced greatly by the addition of fibers. Rather, fibers appear to influence shrinkage-cracking behavior only after the crack begins to open. To better understand the role of fibers in mitigating early-age shrinkage cracking passive acoustic emission testing was used. Acoustic emission measurements indicate microcracking due to the heterogenous nature of the concrete and the presence of moisture gradients. The acoustic emission results highlight how a single crack begins to form into a visible crack. Finally, an approach is presented for estimating crack-width based on the strain data measured from the ring test. The role of the specimen geometry is discussed for comparing the ring test with field applications. 相似文献

A new approach for fabricating high frequency (> 20 MHz) linear array transducers, based on laser micromachining, has been developed. A 30 MHz, 64-element, 74-microm pitch, linear array design is presented. The performance of the device is demonstrated by comparing electrical and acoustic measurements with analytical, equivalent circuit, and finite-element analysis (FEA) simulations. All FEA results for array performance have been generated using one global set of material parameters. Each fabricated array has been integrated onto a flex circuit for ease of handling, and the flex has been integrated onto a custom printed circuit board test card for ease of testing. For a fully assembled array, with an acoustic lens, the center frequency was 28.7 MHz with a one-way -3 dB and -6 dB bandwidth of 59% and 83%, respectively, and a -20 dB pulse width of -99 ns. The per-element peak acoustic power, for a +/- 30 V single cycle pulse, measured at the 10 mm focal length of the lens was 590 kPa with a -6 dB directivity span of about 30 degrees. The worst-case total cross talk of the combined array and flex assembly is for nearest neighboring elements and was measured to have an average level -40 dB across the -6 dB bandwidth of the device. Any significant deviation from simulation can be explained through limitations in apparatus calibration and in device packaging. 相似文献

AbstractA brief survey of the acoustic emission technique for monitoring scale cracking and failure on 2.25–24% Cr steels in wet and dry environments is given. A number of acoustic emission test rigs are described. Some of the more simple test rigs are used for testing small oxidation coupons during isothermal oxidation. More sophisticated rigs have been used for testing full size heat exchanger tubes during thermal cycling.Most acoustic emission measurements in a wet environment come from testing at temperatures below 650°C. There are examples from Alloy 800 and thermal barrier coatings that were tested at higher temperatures, 900°C and 1100°C, respectively. Through the years acoustic emission tests have been performed in dry air, dry air+10%H2O, dry air+0.5%SO2, and Ar+5%H2+50%H2O. Consequently, a wide variety of exposure temperatures and atmospheres can be investigated using acoustic emission techniques.Qualitative acoustic emission results can detect when scale cracking occurs at exposure temperature, where such cracks are produced by growth stress. Acoustic emission signals have been measured during sample cooling, where the signal arises from scale cracking that is caused by the thermal expansion mismatch stress. Measured results have clearly shown that scale cracking caused by both growth stress and thermal expansion mismatch stress are affected by water vapor in the exposure environment. Post-test metallographic investigations show that crack orientation and the oxide scale phases are also affected by the gas composition in the test rig. Additionally the sample mass gain and scale thickness is affected by water vapor content.Finally, acoustic emission techniques are helpful for understanding the phenomena of breakaway oxidation and spallation/exfoliation. 相似文献

In this paper, we report the progress on 3D aerosol deposition of barium titanate (BTO) based multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCC) using an automated process. Solution-based aerosol deposition is a promising direct-write method to produce three-dimensional (3D) structures at low temperatures. We utilize the combination of solution-based aerosol process and selective laser sintering (SLS) to develop 3D structures. The MLCC structure was synthesized on silicon substrate consisting of alternate layers of 0.5-1.0 μm thick silver electrode layer and 0.5-2 μm thick BTO ceramic. The effect of incident laser power subsequent to deposition (in the range of 105 mW and 930 mW) was systematically investigated revealing the changes in grain morphology as a function of local sintering. The results of this study are promising for development of on-substrate thin/thick film MLCCs. 相似文献

Solder joint fatigue failure is a serious reliability concern in area array technologies, such as flip chip and ball grid array packages of integrated-circuit chips. The selection of different substrate materials could affect solder joint thermal fatigue life significantly. The reliability of solder joints in real flip chip assembly with both rigid and compliant substrates was evaluated by the accelerated temperature cycling test and thermal mechanical analysis. The mechanism of substrate flexibility on improving solder joint thermal fatigue lifetime was investigated by fracture mechanics methods. Two different methods (crack tip opening displacement, CTOD and virtual crack closure technique, VCCT) are used to determine the crack tip parameters which are considered as the indices of reliability of solder joints, including the strain energy release rate and phase angle for the different crack lengths and temperatures. It was found that the thermal fatigue lifetime of solder joints in flip chip on flex assembly (FCOF) was much longer than that of flip chip on rigid board assembly (FCOB). The flex substrates could dissipate energy that otherwise would be absorbed by solder joints, that is, substrate flexibility has a great effect on solder joint reliability and the reliability improvement was attributed to flex buckling or bending during thermal cycling. 相似文献

Copper nano-ink with a drop-on-demand (DOD) piezoelectric inkjet printing method was introduced. The printed electrodes were thermally sintered to ensure high-quality electrical and mechanical performances. To check the reliability of the printed electrodes on a polymer layer, resistance changes were measured under static loading. The electrodes with various widths and thicknesses were used to find the optimal dimensions. A multifunctional composite laminate which can harvest and store a solar energy was fabricated using printed electrodes. An amorphous silicon solar cell and a thin film solid state lithium-ion battery were adhesively joined and electrically connected to a thin flexible printed circuit board (PCB). Then, the passive components such as resistor and diode were electrically connected to the printed circuit board by silver pasting. The integrated PCB was co-cured with a carbon/epoxy composite laminate by the vacuum bag molding process in an autoclave. The structural and functional performance of the final energy harvesting/storage composite laminate was tested under mechanical loading. 相似文献

Different constituents of concrete can have cracking behavior that varies in terms of the acoustic waveform that is generated. Understanding the waveform may provide insight into the source and behavior of a crack that occurs in a cementitious composite. In this study, passive acoustic emission (AE) was used to investigate the waveform properties of the individual components of concrete (i.e., aggregate, paste, and interfacial transition zone (ITZ)). First, acoustic events produced by cracks generated using mechanical loading in a wedge splitting test were detected. It was observed that cracks that occurred through the aggregate have an AE frequency range between 300 kHz and 400 kHz, while cracks that propagated through the matrix (paste and ITZ) have a frequency range between 100 kHz and 300 kHz. Second, tests were performed using samples that were susceptible to alkali silica reaction; and AE and X-ray computed tomography were used to detect cracking. AE events with a frequency range between 300 kHz and 400 kHz were detected at early ages, suggesting the initiation of cracks within reactive aggregate. At later ages, AE events were detected with frequency ranges of 100–300 kHz, indicating crack development and propagation in the matrix. 相似文献

The quantitative estimation of failure stress of a lithium niobate (LN) single crystal due to thermal shock was investigated.
Cylindrical test specimens were used in the thermal shock tests. The thermal stress of an LN test specimen under conditions
of thermal shock cracking was calculated from a computer program which takes account of the crystal anisotropy, using the
surface temperature measured in the thermal shock test. Four-point bending tests were also carried out to examine the relationship
between the thermal shock cracking and the failure of a small test specimen due to mechanical load. LN single crystals fractured
at the cleavage planes {0 1 1 2} in the thermal shock test and the four-point bending test. Although the failure stress data
obtained from both tests obey the Weibull distribution, the Weibull distribution depends not only on specimen size but also
on loading type. According to the Weibull distribution of thermal shock test data, if the normal stress σn acting on the cleavage planes {0 1 1 2} is lower than 10 MPa, the probability of thermal shock cracking becomes very small
— less than 2%.

Dispersion of nano-sized particles at high solid content has attracted attention in many industrial applications such as printed
electronic products. However, the material design and processing heavily depends on experience with little quantitative measure.
For fabrication of thinner dielectric layers, Ni size is getting smaller when used as an inner electrode in multilayer chip
capacitor (MLCC). In the present study, we investigate the rheological properties and printing performance of the pastes with
two different sizes of Ni particles in the same incompatible binder mixtures of ethyl cellulose (EC) and polyvinyl butyral
(PVB). The difference in particle size causes different microstructural heterogeneity and highly nonlinear rheological properties
upon the external flow field. The printing pattern and the surface profile are also analyzed by confocal images after screen
printing. For smaller particle size of Ni, the more heterogeneous microstructure is observed with increasing PVB content,
which is evidenced by the screen printing images as well as its rheological behavior. We explain the difference of spatial
heterogeneity in terms of different interactions between particle–particle and particle–polymer. This work is believed to
contribute to better design of inner electrodes and processing in MLCC manufacturing. 相似文献
