Make up a Pb-"Free" sign and everyone will rush to nature to get some.

Technetters,
Yes, Ben makes a good point. Here are the exceptions we rely on:
Lead in ceramics
Lead in glasses
Lead in glass frit
High lead die attaches
Lead in flip chip balls
Lead in steel for machining
Lead in aluminum for machining
Lead in copper for machining

In components, Pb is often the only material that falls under RoHS. So
yes, "Pb-Free" is often used in place of "RoHS compliant".
But the vendor on the site linked below states that the part is
"RoHS-compliant and lead-free" so it sound to me that he's just trying
to cover all bases - make it as clear as possible.
Also, keep in mind that there are exceptions in RoHS - a part does not
have to be Pb-Free to be RoHS compliant.

Thanks for your advice!
I have just searched some websites where give us the information is very
interesting as: Component Supplier determined that lead-free meet RoHS
compliant (see http://www.powerint.com/leadfree.htm#Q3 ) and leadfree is
often wrongly adopted ... (see
http://www.pb-free.info/faqs_difference_between_rohs_and_pbfree.htm)
How do you think about it?

What a technical and concise explanation and so esoteric in the defining
moments with "a melted pile of glop". The joys of being Canadian.
It was nice seeing you again at APEX.
Take care.

That's an easy one. Lead free has no lead and an RoHS compliant one has
no lead, cadmium, mercury, Cr(VI) or the two families of brominated fire
retardants - above the amounts set by the EU for each homogeneous
material that is mechanically separable. However, being lead free or
RoHS compliant does not mean that the component is lead free PROCESS
compliant! Many connectors have never had a stitch of lead in them, but
would be a melted pile of glop if you ran them through a reflow oven at
250C.

Dear All,
Could you tell me what the difference between Lead free component and
RoHS compliant component is? And can we use lead free component for RoHS
compliant products?
Pls give us your advice.
Thanks and best reagrds,
