Seven common failure modes of capacitors(5)

    The main causes of corrosion or fracture of capacitor leads.

    (1) Electrochemical corrosion occurs under the action of electric field in high temperature environment;

    (2) Leakage of electrolyte along lead wire, which causes lead wire to be chemically corroded;

    (3) The mechanical damage of the lead wire in the process of making the capacitor;

    (4) The mechanical strength of lead wire is not enough.
