Fast oxidisation is a common issue related to high temperatures and the presence of oxygen during the convection reflow or wave soldering processes. The oxidisation may induce some degradation of metal surface and its environmental robustness, thus impacting the components and the electronic hardware lifetime.

Capacitor manufacturers have been adding capacity since 2017 and, while lead times for many parts could stretch, allocations for most parts, are not likely. However, it is unclear what the MLCC scenario will be and if buying conditions will turn from being a buyer’s market to a seller’s market. One thing is for sure. The MLCC market will be different in 2020 than it was in 2019.

Measured data collected during the study showed that the bias dependence for the same nominal part from different vendors can be very different. Moreover it was shown that bias sensitivity of X7R parts is not necessarily better than that of X5R parts, sometimes not even from the same vendor.

GaN power transistors will be the transistor of choice on the rollout of 5G because of power density, energy efficiency, and system size requirements for macro and micro base stations for broadband delivery. GaN RF transistors will play an important part for the power amplifiers of those base stations.
