Here’s a clever hack. Simple, elegant, and eminently cost-effective: using an SMD capacitor to hold your flash media in place ...

The possible failure modes of the multi-layer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) under board-level shock environment are studied through modeling, simulation and experiment. In this work, a finite element model ...

Their findings are presented in the study “ A Failure Mode Affecting the Reliability of LECO-Treated High-Efficiency TOPCon Solar Cells,” published in RRL Solar.

Generally, white LEDs are just UV or 405 nm (‘blue’) LEDs that have a phosphor coating on top that converts the emitted wavelength into broad band visible (white) or another specific ...

Scientists have reported in Science that the key to fixing solid-state battery (SSB) failures may lie in well-documented mechanical laws, paving the way for longer operational lifetimes. A battery ...

When a chip malfunctions it’s the job of the failure analysis engineer to determine how it failed or significantly deviated from its key performance metrics. The cost of failure in the field can be ...

Development of MLCC for LiDAR, a Key Device in Autonomous Driving Samsung Electro-Mechanics expanding its range of Automotive Multilayer Ceramic Capacitors (MLCC) with the groundbreaking new 2.2uF ...

The global multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) market size was valued at $10256.07 million in 2019 and is projected to reach $16838.84 million by 2026, registering a CAGR of 7.34% from 2020 to 2026.

In the mid-'90s, the Mac LC III capacitors were installed backwards due to faulty silkscreen printing on the board. The capacitor was not upside-down visually or orientation-wise but in voltage.

Apple always did things differently The upside-down capacitor in mid-‘90s Macs, proven and documented by hobbyists A "copy/paste error" on a Mac logic board has led to some restoration problems.
