Subject: RE: [TN] Rohs Weeeeeee board material

Our customers are mostly calling out the Tg AND Td requirements rather
than the specific material. We also recommend this as it allows
fabricators more flexibility to procure the raw material. 
Being a Quick turn Proto Manufacturer this is extremely important to us.

Thanks for the responses, folks.

So... I wonder now how many out there are specifying board material via
IPC-4101/XXx vs. generic this-n-that vs. specific vendor product name?

I'm guessing the preference is different depending on if you're a
callout-er or a callout-ee, and on the environment. As someone whose
target boardshop is never known until the lowest bid is in, I prefer a
generic approach. It's good to know what the rest of the world is doing
though; just for the helluvit.

Polyclad 370HR is an excellent material, but it should be classified as
IPC-4101/126.

Chris, RoHS doesn't bar the use of the Br retardants usually used in the
epoxy/glass used in PCBs (tetrabromobisphenol A), so you don't
necessarily need a halogen free material for RoHS compliance unless you
absolutely want to future proof the design. As far as materials go I'd
probably reference 4101/98 which is a filled material with halogen
retardant (polyclad 370HR being an example of the type) which gives
improved via reliability from a degree of Z-axis CTE control resulting
from the filler addition. I'm not sure that the halogen free materials
are sufficiently mature yet and have no experience with them so can't
recommend one, but 370HR is good.

Subject: [TN] Rohs Weeeeeee board material

Hello Folks-

We're trying to cost a new design which may have to be leadfree, rohs
compliant, etc...

We would otherwise reference IPC4101/21. Any recommendations as to what
we should specify for this one? We were gonna ref. /24 but that's got
bromine......

Thanks in Advance,
-Chris
