cap size and copper thickness vs part size questions | 7 November, 2005

If I am putting chip capacitors on a .063 FR4 board, what size package should we stay away from to avoid cracking?

If I use 2 mil copper on the outside layers of a PCB, am I limited to what pitch of parts I can use? Specifically, will using 0603 caps or parts with .65mm pin spacing cause problems?

Ceramic capacitors larger then EIA size 1812 are known to be very susceptible to thermal shock damage due to their large ceramic mass.
