Personally, I think that the EU got the order backwards with ROHS and WEEE. They should exempt Pb (in electronics) from ROHS until there is a comparable alternative, and enforce WEEE to keep consumer electronics from our landfills. But that's just me

This is a post from another forum as a response from Bob Landman to a claim that he had no evidence to be concerned about lead-free in hirel applications (interesting read). See below and am sure many technetters will find this interesting **********

I took a Lead Free troubleshooting Class at SMTA in Chicago last September taught by Phil Zarrow. He told us during that seminar that its not a good practice to cross contaminate Leaded and Lead Free components but IF it is necesary than using lead

In passives I dont know if anything changed at all other than the terminal plating. As for Active components there has been much engineering done to allow for the extra heat needed to liquify say SAC305 or other lead free pastes without damage to th

Hello All. Can the experts in the lead free field guide me to the articles / data confirming that it is OK to use lead free components in the normal "leaded" (Pb) SMT process. And also if any changes in the process would be required to be made. Th

Thanx for your only reply!! I already increased temprature now its actualy on board is 240*c. I would like to discuss one more thing if I go for lead free solder paste & using some components wich are not lead free then what will be the result. Has a

Yes, you can use lead-free parts in a leaded process. And the other is true as well, no-lead free parts in a leaded process. BUT, you should not use leaded parts through a non-lead wave solder process and of course, your board will not be RoSH.
