PartMiner Expands
Material Information
Joint Industry Guide Information Now Available in CAPSTM
Material Content Database
Centennial, Colorado and Melville, New York (BUSINESS WIRE)-- May 3, 2007 _PartMiner, Inc. continues to expand the CAPSTM
database with the addition of Joint Industry Guide (JIG), Material Composition
Declaration values. The standard, JIG-101, was created by member companies of
EICTA (Europe), JGPSSI (Japan), EIA (USA) and JEDEC (USA).
"To meet the
increasing need for hazardous material information, the CAPSTM
Material Content Database now includes negative declaration data reported on
restricted JIG substances and materials of concern. This compliments
PartMiner's current RoHS data offering with much more depth at the component
substance detail," according to Paul Magin, SVP content & solutions.
PartMiner uses direct
manufacturer feeds, custom data services, and the proven CAPSTM data
collection methodology to save our customers time in evaluating component
compliance. Described by the JIG-101 and IPC-1752 (Class 3/Class 4) standards,
substance weight and parts per million (PPM) values make it easy to compile
summary reports at an assembly level.
The addition of Joint Industry
Guide information demonstrates PartMiner's continued commitment to deliver the
information our users want. JIG data is offered as a free upgrade to CAPSTM
subscribers of the Material Content database segment.
