10. Bending Test
* The middle part of substrate
shall be pressurized by means
of the pressurizing rod at a rate
of about 1 mm per second until
the deflection becomes 1 mm
and then the pressure shall be
maintained for 5 ±1 s

Cap change:
NPO: within ±5% or ±05 pF whichever is larger X7R, X5R: within
±12.5%
Y5V: within ±30%
(This capacitance change means the change of capacitance under
specified flexure of substrate from the capacitance measured
before the test)
