RoHS
RoHS1 2002/95/EC Took effect on July 1, 2006 Restricts 6 substances for in-scope EEE products placed on EU market Focused on consumer electronics
RoHS2 2011/65/EU Entered in force on July 21, 2011; member states transposition by January 2, 2013 Replaced RoHS1 on January 2, 2013
RoHS2 Main Changes Scope and scope exclusions Definition of EEE Restricted substances Conformity assessment and CE marking Exemption procedure
Expanded Scope RoHS2 applies to EEE falling under the categories set out in Annex I: 1. Large household appliances 2. Small household appliances 3. IT and telecommunications equipment 4. Consumer equipment 5. Lighting equipment 6. Electrical and electronic tools (with the exception of large-scale stationary industrial tools)
Expanded Scope RoHS2 applies to EEE falling under the categories set out in Annex I: 8. Medical devices (beginning 2014; in vitro diagnostic beginning 2016) 9. Monitoring and control instruments (beginning in 2014) and industrial monitoring and control instruments (beginning in 2017) 10. Automatic dispensers 11. Other EEE not covered by any of the categories above (2019)
Exclusions from scope Military equipment Equipment designed to be sent into space Equipment designed and installed as part of another type of equipment not within scope Large-scale stationary industrial tools Large-scale fixed installations Means of transport Non-road mobile machinery for professional use Active implantable medical devices Photovoltaic panels R&D equipment only available on B to B basis
Changed definition of EEE EEE means equipment which is dependent on electric currents or electromagnetic fields in order to work properly.etc. dependent means, with regard to EEE, equipment needing electric currents or electromagnetic fields to fulfil at least one intended function; 17
RoHS2 CE Marking Declaration of Conformity and technical file required CE mark to be affixed on the finished EEE The CE mark on a product means that the product conforms to all CE marking directives that apply to it, including RoHS2 18
RoHS2 Substance Restrictions IPC and industry advocacy resulted in no additional substance restrictions Despite significant efforts by NGOs; Green Party IPC position: Additional RoHS substance restrictions should be based on a scientific methodology
RoHS2, Article 6 Requires the European Commission to review the list of restricted substances in EEE: Before 22 July 2014 Periodically thereafter on its own initiative; or Following the submission of a proposal by a Member State
RoHS 2 Review of Substance Restrictions EU Commission hired Environment Agency Austria Umweltbundesamt (UBA) to: Develop a methodology to identify and assess substances based on the criteria in Recital 10 and Article 6(1) and 6(2); Assess the substances addressed in Recital 10 with a view to their future restriction; Review (for restriction) of priority substances in RoHS 2 Annex II Hexabromocyclododecane (HBCDD) Bis (2- ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) Butyl benzyl phthalate (BBP) Dibutyl phthalate (DBP)
Methodology Concerns Does not require full evaluation of alternative substances Can lead to unintended consequences Focuses on evaluating the substance s environmental and human health impacts during end of life Should review full life cycle
IPC Comments on Annex 2 Dossiers Dossiers contain a significant amount of inaccurate information and flawed assumptions Reports focus on irrelevant data from uncontrolled waste treatment in developing nations HBCDD dossier assumes that a complete change in the flame retardant and laminate system would have no cost impact for EEE producers
Final Report Final Report on Study for the Review of the List of Restricted Substances under RoHS2 issued January 2014 http://www.umweltbundesamt.at/rohs2 Final dossiers for HBCDD, DEHP, BBP and DBP Although the final dossiers acknowledge stakeholder comments, the findings were unchanged
Recent RoHS2 Updates Potential addition of new substances onto the restriction list 24 substances with 6 levels of priority New working group on substance restrictions formed
Substances Identified for Restriction Eight substances were identified to be of highest priority: Four phthalates: Di-(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate (DEHP), Di-nbutyl phthalate, (DBP), Butyl benzyl phthalate (BBP) and Diisobutyl phthalate (DiBP) The chlorinated flame retardant tris(2- chloroethyl)phosphate The 2 brominated flame retardants Hexabromocyclododecane (HBCDD) and 2,3-dibromo-1-propanol Dibromoneopentyl-glycol 26
Substances Identified for Restriction Four substances were identified to be of the second highest priority: antimony trioxide diethyl phthalate (DEP) Tetrabromobisphenol A (TBBPA) and medium-chain chlorinated paraffins The polymer PVC was classified to be of the third highest priority, in particular because of its high waste relevance
Next Steps Commission is required to complete a review of Annex II by July 2014 Next EU Commission substances review in 4 years (2018) It is likely that additional substance dossiers will be submitted by EU Member States by July 2016, triggering a review of those substances 28
Exemptions Specific exempted applications listed: In Annex III (for all EEE), and In Annex IV (for medical devices and monitoring and control instruments only) Manufacturers can apply for exemptions Must show no reasonable alternatives, little impact to environment and health, etc. Exemptions have expiry dates 5 years for Categories 1-7, 10 and 11 7 years for Categories 8 and 9
Exemptions -Renewal Application to be made 18 months before the exemption expires Commission to decide no later than 6 months before expiry date Rejection of an application for renewal shall not take effect until at least 12 months and no later than 18 months after the date of the Commission Decision Ongoing industry effort to collect technical information on the need to extend certain exemptions
MATERIALS DECLARATION AND ROHS COMPLIANCE
IPC Data Exchange Standards B2B communication on materials in products XML-schema based IPC-1751A contains basic demographic and contact information Four sectional standards Materials declaration (IPC-1752A) Packaging declaration (IPC-1758) Laboratory declaration (IPC-1753) Conflict minerals declaration (IPC-1755)
IPC Data Exchange Standards IPC Data Exchange Standards: Defines what data is to be collected and shared Defines the language (XML) for sharing data The standard is NOT a reporting form Independent third-party providers develop tools (i.e. forms) compatible with the standards Data can be easily exchanged among all tools that support IPC- 1755 Some tools provide sophisticated data management Tools can also interface with internal company systems Ex. CFSI Template 34
IPC-1752A Materials Declaration Four classes of declaration allowed Class A: Declaration/Query Reply RoHS, REACH, custom Class B: Material Group Declaration General composition information about a product Class C: Material Composition Summary Declaration Types of substances within a product (i.e. RoHS substance categories, IEC 62474 Material Declaration substance categories) Class D: Material Composition Declaration Substances at the homogeneous material level (full materials declaration)
IPC-1752A Materials Declaration: Appendices Appendices include: RoHS Substances and Exemptions list Joint Industry Guide (sunsetted replaced by IEC 62474 database) REACH SVHC list REACH substance restrictions list (Article 67) Appendices updated biannually to coincide with the updates to the REACH SVHC list January and July
IPC-1752A Materials Declaration Committee continues to review potential enhancements to the standard Working to harmonize with the IEC 62474 Materials Declaration Standard Committee working to review solution providers that have developed compliant software tools

Environmental Compliance Comprehensive Data Approach - Complete data on the orderable part level for all materials contained in making of the part. - Due diligence documentations for legal issues Regulations - RoHS/RoHS-2 - China RoHS - REACH with all of its updates - WEEE - Green, JIG-A, JIG-B
Why use data to mitigate RoHS risk? Know which end products are most likely affected by RoHS2 Environmental Challenges/ Regulations are not going away Find cross-references for parts that are not RoHS2 compliant Access to other imperative information such as Lifecycle Status, Counterfeit Risk, Multi-sourcing Data, and more Have an answer to the question: Are my products RoHS2 compliant?
