Spence Moderator United States 34410 Posts	Posted 05/03/2020 06:05 am @hermz, for sure that is a good example of die cracks starting at sharp corners (stress risers) in the design. Here is a pic I took a while back showing something similar with expansion cracks.

Hermz Valued Member United States 181 Posts	Posted 05/03/2020 10:27 am Fair enough, think I'll just toss it back to the wild. Spence, I don't understand, these are an example of stress cracks and not die? Report this Post to the Staff
