To All <strong>CEL</strong> Customers:<br />
Thank you for your continued support of <strong>CEL</strong> products.<br />
In our ongoing efforts to offer green products and remain responsive to the global trend of substance<br />
regulations, we have taken steps to meet the restricted use of <strong>Halogen</strong>s in Consumer Electronics (e.g.<br />
IEC 61249-2-21).<br />
<strong>Halogen</strong> <strong>free</strong> devices are defined as containing chlorine (Cl)

The Change of Mold Resin Material<br />
to <strong>Halogen</strong> Free<br />
for Microwave Devices<br />

Introduction<br />
This is to announce that NEC Electronics will change the mold<br />
resin material of microwave devices to environment-conscious<br />
type material, “<strong>Halogen</strong> Free”, according to the schedule.<br />
This pack of slides as a pamphlet is prepared for explanation<br />
about the detail of <strong>Halogen</strong> Free products.<br />
This pamphlet will help your better understanding about the<br />
change to <strong>Halogen</strong> Free.<br />

Notification of Change: Mold Resin of Microwave<br />
Devices for <strong>Halogen</strong> <strong>free</strong><br />
Cf. GTP-SB-2613 dated in February 2nd, 2009<br />
1. Description of changes:<br />
1)The package mold resin is changed to non-brominated flame retardants<br />
(<strong>Halogen</strong> Free Resin).<br />
2) NEC Electronics defines “halogen <strong>free</strong>” products by which the content<br />
of chlorine (Cl) and bromine (Br) in the package mold resin.<br />
3) The substrate fills following criteria.<br />
Bromine (Br)
The Background of the change to<br />
<strong>Halogen</strong> Free<br />
Serving “green products” to protect global environment is one<br />
of NEC Electronics’ important missions.<br />
Needs for environment-conscious operation have been raised.<br />
The plastic containing Bromine and Chlorine will produce toxic<br />
Dioxin with high possibility when they burn.<br />
It is the environmental pollutant.<br />
Due to above conditions, Bromine <strong>free</strong> and Chlorine <strong>free</strong> products<br />
are required.<br />

The Countermeasure for <strong>Halogen</strong> Free<br />
Which material in device would be contained halogen<br />
substances *1 ?<br />
*1: Chlorine and Bromine only.<br />
Mold Resin<br />
Silver Conductive Paste<br />
Mold Resin<br />
<br />
As flame retardants, bromine (Br) or<br />
antimony (Sb) is contained<br />
approximately 3%.<br />
<br />
Change to alternative flame retardants<br />
composed with metallic hydrate<br />
components (Aluminum compound)<br />
Silver Conductive Paste<br />
High purity silver conductive paste. (No need to change)<br />
‣The packing materials (e.g. reels, cartons, etc.) are out of the halogen-<strong>free</strong> subject<br />

No Impact by Resin Change<br />
• Result of reliability test:<br />
Humidity resistance, heat resistance and thermal<br />
cycle test were performed and evaluated.<br />
No impact was observed by changing the resin.<br />
• Electric Characteristics:<br />
There is no impact on electric characteristics<br />
by changing resin.<br />
MSL (Moisture Sensitive Level: Level 1) and flame<br />
retardant level(V-0) stay the same as non <strong>Halogen</strong><br />
Free products.<br />

Distinction of <strong>Halogen</strong> Free Products<br />
“Y” mark is printed in S/No. column on reel and packing carton box label.<br />
It expresses <strong>Halogen</strong> Free product.<br />
This S/No. is described as “Rank” on the data sheets of Si/SiGe Transistors<br />
and Twin Transistors.<br />
(1) One and two digit mark/rank<br />
Add “Y” as the first digit.<br />
Example “K” → “YK”<br />
“FB” → “YFB”<br />
(2) Three digit mark/rank<br />
The first digit is changed into “Y”<br />
Example “R29” → “Y29”<br />
“79M” → “Y9M”<br />
Some package categories will not be printed “Y” mark in S/No. column<br />
even though they are halogen <strong>free</strong> products. These packages were originally<br />
designed without <strong>Halogen</strong>. Please see below package suffix.<br />
