New Japan RadioSemiconductor Product Information

Semiconductor Product Information


RoHS stands for "the Restriction of the use of certain Hazardous Substances in electrical and electronic equipment." This Directive is enforced in the EU to monitor the levels of hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment. The hazardous substances include lead, cadmium, mercury, hexavalent chromium, polybrominated biphenyl (PBB) and polybrominated diphenyl ether (PBDE). As a part of this effort to adhere the RoHS for semiconductor products, New Japan Radio aims to eliminate lead in the terminal plating of our products, rendering them lead-free.


Definition of lead-free components


JEITA (Japan Electronics and Information Technology Industries Association) defines lead-free components in the publication “Guidance for the Lead-Free Marking of Materials, Components and Mounted Boards used in Electronics and Electronic Equipment” (issued in June 2004).
  • Lead-free:
The state in which the content of lead (Pb) in solders and other relevant parts of an electronic component (including terminals and leads) is less than 0.1% of its weight.
  • Phases of lead-free adoption:
Levels of lead-free adoption are classified by JEITA as Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3 and Phase 3A. New Japan Radio is categorised under Phase 3A or Phase 3.
