@Dariddda 4 ай бұрын

It can happen from time to time. I'm a repair technician and I also do back glass repairs, and although I use laser (sometimes I do 2-3 runs) to burn the adhesive, the glass somtimes can still be quite stubborn and my tools I use can slip since I have to use quite big amount of force to break the glass pieces off. and because some parts of the motherboard are not protected by the shield, it is possible to damage those parts of the flex cables or the motherboard. It can happen and we always warn the customers about the risks. Still suck's when it happens.

If it has a crack through the middle it would be an open circuit wouldn't it ?

I think it's because the conductive plates are so close and the dielectric is so thin, the crack actually allows the conductors to touch. Or maybe they short and then crack? I agree, common sense says a crack should be open circuit!

@warphammer 4 ай бұрын

Capacitors can do a couple things in a circuit. If it's just a cap between a voltage line and ground it's there to smooth out the voltage using the capacitance as a buffer, or shuffle off something to ground, or both. In this case there are many many similar capacitors doing the same thing nearby. There's already a lot of smoothing 'springiness' in that circuit... So if that one's missing, you're barely going to notice it. If it were used differently, say if it were part of a resonant circuit, or as a DC blocking capacitor between AC stages... its absence would disable that circuit. But that's not so here.

Usually when Apple engineers a complex device, they OVER engineer it so there is generally redundant components. So unless that capacitor does something no other capacitor can take up the slack for, I'm guessing you didn't replace it. However, all those "redundant" components don't mean squat when one goes short. If it fails open (can SMD capacitors fail open?), there shouldn't be any noticeable problems.
