Actually, it is a constitutional Right to bare Arms.
This has been much missunderstood. The constitution
was being hammered out during a very hot summer. The
conservatives where insisting

Hello again,
Thanks to everyone who has replied to my query!
I have a few additional questions though:
1. What about the tin whiskers? Will they be eliminated by using SnPb
solder, or will they always remain a potential problem when one is
forced to use a Pb-free part?
2. Several people have r
RoHS = yet another wacky EU Directive. Why did we ever join this nonsense??

Hi Chuck,
from a manufacturer's perspective:
1) Test & MEasurement electronics are exempt at least until 2009, maybe
until 2011 or longer. Good for us, we can keep using the good old Pb.
2) Consumer products reliability just took a steep dive due to tin
whiskers causing shorts in t

Hi Michael,
RoHS parts usually solder nicely with normal 63/37 solder. They will
dilute the solder alloy slightly, but that usually is of no concern.
The big problem with RoHS parts is they don't age well on the shelf.
I have found

I have found that over time, they will not take solder as quickly as

it's not the end of the world.

Hello time-nuts,
Hello time-nuts,
Sorry for the off-topic post, but reading my mail this morning I've seen
a few messages go by on this list about bad solder joints due to the
RoHS stupidity, and I have a question about that.
