Our Standards

Due to growing worldwide environmental concerns, the need for RoHS (Restrictions on the use Of Hazardous Substances) and REACH (Registration, Evaluation, Authorization and Restriction of Chemicals) compliant product solutions in electronic components and systems continues to receive significant attention within the electronics industry. SynQor is committed to support its customers’ environmental needs by offering fully ROHS and REACH compliant products. This initiative is fully supportive of the global industry efforts to phase out the use of lead and other harmful elements from electronic equipment materials and manufacturing processes. SynQor’s goal is to develop products such that they reduce space and materials while increasing power conversion efficiency. In turn, this allows SynQor’s customers to continually reduce their impact on the environment while achieving higher performance levels in their applications.

SynQor has successfully eliminated hazardous and toxic materials from its RoHS compliant products, in compliance with the European parliament directive entitled “Restrictions on the use Of Hazardous Substances” (RoHS) in advance of the July 1, 2006 deadline. SynQor continually monitors product material content to assure its products will continue to meet revisions ongoing to RoHS and REACH legislations.

Section 1502 of the US law known as the “Dodd-Frank Act” includes a requirement that companies using gold, tin, tungsten and tantalum make efforts to determine if those materials came from the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) or an adjoining country and, if so, to carry out a “due diligence” review of their supply chain to determine whether their mineral purchases are funding armed groups in eastern DRC. The US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) issued the final rule implementing Section 1502 in August 2012.

Although as a privately held company, SynQor is not required to publicly report its due diligence results, we make our Conflict Minerals Reporting Template (CMRT) available to support our customers efforts to audit their supply chains for compliance to this facet of the Dodd-Frank Act.

SynQor manufactures its electronic modules and electronic subassemblies using multiple surface mount technology lines. This flexible, multi-line capability enables SynQor to build high volume products alongside customized, low volume products ensuring a steady production stream while maintaining the strictest quality control.

Many of SynQor’s electronic modules, such as converters and filters, also require production of complex, hard to assemble magnetic components as a critical part of the manufacturing process. These and other components must meet high quality, consistency and throughput measures. SynQor therefore utilizes fully automated assembly cells that begin with a populated printed circuit board and output a fully functional unit.

Many of SynQor’s converters and filters get encased to protect them from demanding field environments. SynQor’s encasement process utilizes high performance thermal compound that provides a rugged design with superior thermal characteristics and power output.
