ABSTRACT:
A method for nondestructive testing of multilayer ceramic capacitors exhibiting piezoelectric effects only during poling by a bias voltage to determine the presence or absence of delaminations. The capacitor is inserted in an impedance bridge, a bias voltage of 1 to 2.5 times the rated voltage is applied and the impedance is measured as a function of frequency. A lower than expected impedance indicates a defective capacitor.
