Peel-A-Way® Removable Terminal Carriers Meet RoHS Compliant Requirements


West Warwick, RI, September 20, 2005 - Advanced Interconnections Corp. 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 260º C for 40 seconds. Complete component and board attach test results are available in the related documents section of any Peel-A-Way® product page at www.advanced.com. 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 did not change, 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 labeling will conform to JEDEC Spec JESD97. Pricing and lead-time varies based on the product configuration selected, however many styles with Gold/Gold plating are available in as few as 3 days.
