all your electronics are crap next year

http://www.conformity.com/0508/0508removal.pdf this article will explain it this takes effect the first of next year the price of electronics is going to go up because every component thats gets soldered is going to have to get upgraded to withstand the higher heat needed to melt whatever companies choose to use other than lead to make there connections just htink about everything u use that are going to fail because of brittle and weeker solder joints cell phones,new car electronics,whatever else

Are you high?

WTF did he say??

He apparently cited some European industry article about lead-free replacements for standard rosin/lead based solder...and did a brain dump to the keyboard without really thinking of what he was writing.

You need to re-read what it is saying buddy.

X2 Big TIME!

Yea, from what I got, the industry is being made to switch to lcertain element-free solder materials and they were talking about the problems that amy arise from using lead-free materials. e.g., lead is a mushy substance so it absorbs the shock from some vibration.

Do I need to scan my paperwork on Retaining text and picking out main ideas and send it to you?? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/confused.gif.e820e0216602db4765798ac39d28caa9.gif

The scary thing is...he's past college age //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

OK, I re-read what you wrote and I get what ya mean now.

me confused...

I think a much better discussion would be the increasing use of SMD components instead of discrete transistors...thereby making devices smaller but impossible to work on yourself.

Well I re-read what he wrote after I read some of the article and I think I can better summarize what he is sayin..

European market is restricting the use of many fundamental materials used in soldering. This could cause problems with reliability due to the fact that they are unable to find a combination of or single material that performs as well as lead. He meant to say that all the new electronics that will be using these new materials will be POS's and that we will all have major reliability issues with our products.

or...whatever solution they create will be expensive?

 

[RandyJ 10+ year member]

Ah that too, the new products will be perty pricey.
