Specifying
the right communications and I/O adapters can present
development and integration challenges. Our job at
Chassis Plans is to rise to this challenge. We do
this with products including PCI, USB, and ISA Bus
adapters, Windows COM: ports and products that yield
the best return on your investment. Our technical
support, mass customization resources and software
leadership in Windows integration and Software drivers
make it easier to integrate, manage and upgrade.
We offer a broad product line including one to sixteen
port cards with RS-232, RS-422, RS-485 and RS-530
connections. Boards with optical isolation are available
to eliminate ground loop and transient issues. Low
profile cards are available for 3U chassis installation.

RoHS - WEEE
Compliance
Electronic products sold into the European Union
must be free of six hazardous substances by July
1, 2006, as stated in Directive 2002/95/EC. RoHS
compliance comes at a premium and many customers
still demand noncompliant products. All new Chassis
Plans serial I/O circuit boards will have two gold-plated,
etched-copper pads marked “RoHS” and “non-RoHS”
in the silkscreen. The absence of these pads denotes
a noncompliant product. During separate manufacturing
processes, compliant boards will have a solder mark
on the “RoHS” pad, while noncompliant
boards will have a solder mark on the “non-RoHS”
pad. Thus, the boards are clearly marked and can
be visually identified.
Since compliant and noncompliant products share
a common design, Chassis Plans chose to continue
with the familiar 4-digit part numbering scheme
for noncompliant products. RoHS compliant parts
will append “-RoHS” to the end of the
part number.
In addition, we are finding availability for some
RoHS compliant parts to be difficult as vendors
deplete non-compliant parts or bring new designs
to market. Please consult the factory for lead times
for particular products.
