  • Abstract
    One lidless CPU product failed more than 20% of visual inspections due to foreign material near the capacitor electrodes during testing production. This paper presents the analysis method for the foreign material, formation mechanism of dendrites, verification experiment by DOE, root cause for this case, and corrective solutions.
