Terminal carriers complete RoHS compliant testing

Advanced Interconnections has recently completed RoHS compliant testing on its patented Peel-A-Way removable terminal carrier products.

Advanced Interconnections has recently completed RoHS compliant testing on its patented Peel-A-Way removable terminal carrier products.

All Peel-A-Way PGA, DIP, SIP and board to board connectors with lead-free terminal plating meet the RoHS Directive's requirements for material content, and can withstand the higher temperatures associated with lead-free electronics processing.

The Peel-A-Way insulator, made of polyimide film, as well as the screw-machined terminals and multi-fingered contacts passed survivability tests up to 260C for 40s.

Complete component and board attach test results are available in the related documents section of any Peel-A-Way product page on the company's Web-site.

For applications that require RoHS compliant connectors, all Peel-A-Way products are offered with either new matte tin terminal plating with gold plated contacts (MG) or traditional gold/gold plating (GG).

Advanced will continue to offer tin/lead plating for RoHS exempt applications.

Since the insulator material has not changed, the part numbering system will remain the same, with the addition of the new MG plating option and new terminal type numbers for solder preform terminals featuring Sn/Ag/Cu preforms.

Product and packaging labelling will conform to JEDEC Spec JESD97.

Pricing and lead-times vary based on the product configuration selected, however many styles with gold/gold plating are available in as few as three days.
