We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "RoHS",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Electronicstalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Switching regulator is cool alternative to linear from
Linear Technology Corp, which we summarised at the time by saying "Complete DC/DC module includes a DC/DC controller IC, power switches, inductor, compensation circuitry and input and output bypass capacitors".
The same day,
we featured the news release Transmitter module saves space and power from
RF Micro Devices: "Dual-band transmit module features two symmetrical receive ports, 50ohm matched input and output ports and GSM/GPRS Class 12 compliance".
In February 2008, we covered the news from Anadigics
concerning its AWM6422
- take a look at Power amplifier covers WiMAX and WiBro
which says: "The AWM6422 power amplifier is a high performance device with exceptional linearity and efficiency at high levels of output power".
Take a look also at the news release from Kycon, HDMI connector range has a new dimension,
as well as Potentiometers get in trim from Arun Components,
and Getting the measure of alternating currents from Murata Power Solutions.
