Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) Information
RoHS is European legislation that bans cadmium, hexavalent chromium, lead, mercury, PBBs (polybrominated biphenyls),
and PBDEs (polybrominated diphenyl ethers) by July 2006.
Due to environmental concerns, the need for lead-free
solutions in electronic components and systems is receiving increasing attention within the semiconductor and
electronics industries. Maxim Integrated Products is committed to working with our customers
to be able to offer products which meet their specific needs while complying with RoHS legislation.
Lead is the only RoHS-banned substance of concern for the integrated
circuits manufactured by Maxim Integrated Products,
therefore lead-free products are also RoHS compliant products. Like
other semiconductor companies, we use tin/lead solder (plating) for the surface finish of leadframes. These packages
are deemed as "leaded." Many of our package types are qualified as lead-free and have a surface finish that is
comprised of 100% matte tin that has been annealed.
