Thanks Blair


It is difficult to find anything meaningful in these site, any thoughts?

Jon,

You might want to look through the archives of the LeadFree forum -
there Is a. lot more information and discussion related to this over
there.

Hello netters

I was wondering if I could get some information about the status of the
RoHS Directive.  

We have been hearing things like:

        Have 9 states already outlaw certain RoHS materials effective
Jan 1, 2006?
        Due date of July 1 is being moved back for the auto industry;
does anyone know where any document to substantiate this can be found?
        Lead free solder has problems with reliability:
            Tin whiskers.
            Proper filling of thru holes.
            Solder plating corrosion.


Any expertise in this area would be greatly appreciated as I am hearing
everyone is quite confused about the status of the RoHS Directive .




Thank You
Jon McDowell
