Preparing for Medical Electronics RoHS Compliance
May 20, 2013 2:33 pm | by George Karalias, Director of Marketing & Communications, Rochester Electronics | Rochester Electronics | Blogs | CommentsNext July, certain medical electronics will fall under the scope of RoHS—the European Union’s Restriction on Hazardous Substances. In terms of the electronics industry, that is now a tight deadline for manufacturers. Medical devices that have so far been exempt from RoHS fall into scope under the RoHS Recast (RoHS 2) beginning in July 2014.
