D-sub Connectors Now Meet RoHS Directive Requirements
December 13, 2005 |Estimated reading time: Less than a minute
ETTERS, Pa. — FCI's RoHS-compatible D-Sub connector family now meets the European Directive EU 2002/95/EC — the Delta D series straight-solder and press-fit versions are now available without the restricted materials as detailed in the directive, and the right-angle version will be available by the end of the year.
The Delta D-subminiature connectors are available for both PCB and cable applications in both signal and power versions. The RoHS-compatible versions withstand temperatures up to 260°C for 3.5 seconds, and are capable of withstanding lead-free wave soldering temperatures. The RoHS-compatible Delta D range is identified by the suffix "LF" at the end of existing part numbers.
"The implementation of new part numbers by FCI also makes it easy for customers to segregate and manage their component inventories as they migrate to production of RoHS-compliant electronic equipment in the months leading up to the RoHS compliance date of July 1, 2006," says David Sideck, FCI Regional Market Manager.
