The Lead-Free Zone at Design News has launched a RoHS Forum to discuss environmental compliance issues: Click here to join.
The forum will cover these topics:
New legislation affecting electronic products – that includes compliance regulations from other countries as well as individual U.S. states.
Component availability. We’ll discuss the availability of both leaded and lead-free parts.
Urban legends and myths. There is plenty of questionable information swirling around the issue of environmental compliance. We’ll try to find what’s true and what’s not.
Materials declaration and labeling. The rules on declaration and labeling are changing continually. We’ll discuss what’s needed and when it’s needed.
Technical aspects of lead-free parts and assemblies.
Any topic of your choosing. There are environmental compliance topics we can’t even guess at now. We’ll discuss those at they arrive.
Thanks to embedded electronics, medical devices are getting smaller and smarter than ever. Pacemakers and implantable defibrillators are now able to call physicians. MRIs, CT scanners, and ultrasound machines are gaining mobility. And the venerable Band-Aid may soon be able to detect illnesses ranging from fevers to heart arrhythmias. On February 21, join Design News senior editor Charles Murray for a wide-ranging discussion, "Embedded Angles for Medical Products," which will explore the latest developments in medical electronics. The discussion will examine advances in medical device technology and offer an inside look at the embedded electronics behind it.
