Jack,
Just designing for RoHS compliance does not dictate the use of non-dicey
cured material. If you are designing a fully compliant, complex,
Lead-free design that will be exposed to a minimum of two lead-free
reflow profiles and one wave solder operation and expect it to work for
twenty plus years, then no dicey-cured FR4 shall apply. IPC-4101/126 and
/129 are phenolic cured materials which have demonstrated a robustness
that is up to the challenge.

Subject: [TN] My first RoHS circuit board!

Well, we avoided it as long as we could, but now I have to design for
RoHS
compliance.

I'm basically following Werner's recommendations (which don't conflict
with
anyone else's as far as I know), but I'm confused about one aspect of
material:
Several sources have stated that its better to use "NON-DICEY" material,
but
none of the IPC-4101 slash sheets mention dicy or non-dicy (or
dicyandiamide).
If we are trying /126 material, do we still have to specify non-dicy?

thanks,
Jack
