| Ecopack is the name given to Lead-free devices
and Lead-free packages from STMicroelectronics. |
Lead-free devices are described inside an internal specification
defining :
- their caracteristics : lead-free connections coating , solderability
and identification features
- their reliability such as soldering resistance, reliability performances
, whiskers risk prevention
This specification is available for ST customers upon request. Ecopack
components are following the RoHS directive including its exemptions
( High temperature solder for inner packages soldering, FritSealing
glass) It means that Lead-free power packages are containing Lead
Solder for attachment of IC to dissipators. see certificate
of compliance to RoHS directive.
STMicroelectronics is continuously working to develop and assess new
Lead-free technologies to allow full Lead-free assembly devices with
at least the same level of reliability than today packages
