Microtune's Commitment to 'Green Compliance'
Microtune offers silicon tuners and amplifiers that are in full compliance with the European Union’s (EU) Directive for the Restriction of Hazardous Substances RoHS. Microtune has worked closely with its subcontractors to assure compliance with industry regulations that promote a cleaner and healthier environment.
The RoHS Directive
The RoHS directive
(2002/95/EC) mandates that, effective July 1, 2006, six hazardous substances (lead, mercury, cadmium, hexavalent chromium, polybrominated biphenyls or polybrominated diphenyl ethers) must be removed from most electrical and electronic equipment sold into the EU. Although RoHS legislation is targeted for products sent to Europe, Microtune tuners shipped to the U.S. and other parts of the world meet the same environmental standards.
