First off, a belated thank you to the folks that helped with a confusing
requirement on buzzer loudness.
Now I have a new confusing thing :-) Despite reading numerous papers,
presentations, and the official notice, I am still confused about how it
affects designs.
Here is what I get:
-- all new designs (introduced to the market now) need RoHS II compliance for
CE marking
---- the substance list for RoHS II is the same as RoHS I (for now)
---- the documentation for the design elements with regards to RoHS II
substances needs to be more complete
---- this documentation is part of a technical file
---- there needs to be a risk assessment in regards to whether the
manufacturers that you get components from are compliant
-- existing designs which were subject to RoHS I can continue to ship without
the additional RoHS II documentation requirements, and can still be CE marked
-- existing designs which were exempt from RoHS I have a period of time that
they can continue to ship before becoming compliant.
What are the glaring holes in my summary?
Curt
