Dear Valued Customer,

Request for Switchover to RoHS Compliant Series
in Our Multilayer Ceramic Capacitors

We thank you for your continuous support for our Ceramic Capacitors. We would like to inform you that the Lead oxide used in TC..., TH..., TM... series are not compliant with RoHS Directive from January 1, 2013. This is due to RoHS Directive change in 2010 that the Lead oxide contained Ceramic Dielectric will not be exempted from RoHS Directive. However, it is not corresponded to SVHC of REACH Regulation.
Accordingly, we will replace TC..., TH..., TM... series with RoHS Compliant Series. We would appreciate it if you could consider to switchover TC..., TH..., TM... series to RoHS Compliant Series.
