New China RoHS standards released in Chinese

NO RATINGS

The Chinese Ministry of Information Industry has released three key standards that further define the upcoming China RoHS. Unfortunately they are currently only available in print, in Chinese. Design Chain Associates in San Francisco will soon post translations of the standards in English at its China RoHS site.

The European Lead-Free Soldering Network (ELFNET) reports the China RoHS standards include:

SJ/T 11363-2006 “Requirements for Concentration Limits for Certain Hazardous Substances in Electronic Information Products”

SJ/T 11364-2006 “Marking for the Control of Pollution Caused by Electronic Information Products”

SJ/T 11365-2006 “Testing Methods for Regulated Substances in Electronic Information Products”

ELFNT notes there is a recent version of a guidance document for the “Environment-Friendly Use Period” that will need to be defined for each product.

ELFNET also notes that the Korean government has confirmed that its RoHS-like legislation should be passed this year with a target date of January 1, 2008.

NEXT UPCOMING BROADCAST
For industrial control applications, or even a simple assembly line, that machine can go almost 24/7 without a break. But what happens when the task is a little more complex? That’s where the “smart” machine would come in. The smart machine is one that has some simple (or complex in some cases) processing capability to be able to adapt to changing conditions. Such machines are suited for a host of applications, including automotive, aerospace, defense, medical, computers and electronics, telecommunications, consumer goods, and so on. This radio show will show what’s possible with smart machines, and what tradeoffs need to be made to implement such a solution.
