I am not sure if this relates to us or not but ERS stands for
Environmental Requirements Specification.
It is a document written by Quantum Corp to summarize the numerous E
regs that apply to electronics and the myriad of Larger Electronics
Customers requirements. It is essentially our summary of E restricted
substances. At Quantum, things are either fully compliant to all the
laws = ERS or "just RoHS" which has been typical but getting less
frequent. Just RoHS is not good enough for our customers or our
manufacturing. As added info, the basics of the document are the IPC
Joint Industry Guide. It's the spec behind our MDDS.
I too have seen references like SDoC, MDS, MDDS.
ERS is just an internal acronym at our company... Because so many
haven't heard that there is more than RoHS out there to worry about we
had to come up with a different term to differentiate the level of data
that is needed.
Warmest Regards,
Tracey Christiansen

Material Declaration Data Sheet, which has been around for years. I hope
ERS is Environmental Restraining Statute, which will prevent bad science
from doing more harm to the Environment.

Is anyone familiar with the acronym ERS and MDDS as they relate to
environmental laws? What are they and how are they the same/different
from RoHS, WEEE? Do any of you have a link I could access to start
getting up to speed?
