There are several components in a PCB that could be RoHS non-compliant. You can't really focus on one thing, say plating, and then assume that if the PCB has the correct plating then it's RoHS. Most manufacturers that I've dealt with can produce RoHS compliant PCBs, but you need to specify RoHS compliance when you order just as with any other component. -Adam On 1/28/08, Dumitru Stama wrote: > Hi guys, > I was wondering if online PCB-makers are usually RoHS compliant. > I am using components which are compliant, solder without Pb, > plastic container which contains no forbidden substances but > the real question comes when i get to the PCB part. > Is it the solder mask which is usually not compatible with > ROHS constraints ? > Dumitru > -- > http://www.piclist.com PIC/SX FAQ & list archive > View/change your membership options at > http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist > -- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Moving in southeast Michigan?
