Restriction of Hazardous Substances Directive a disadvantage because it can lead to lower quality electrical connections – can be used to place components more tightly than they used to be placed due to the properties of lead-containing solders. For example, Motorola reports that their new RoHS wireless device assembly techniques are "...enabling a smaller, thinner, lighter unit." Their Motorola Q phone would not have been possible without the new solder. The lead-free solder allows for tighter pad spacing. Research into new alloys and technologies is allowing companies to release RoHS products that are currently exempt from compliance, "e.g." computer servers. IBM has announced a RoHS
C-element known, the C-element can be realized as a sum-of-product (SOP) circuit . Earlier techniques for implementing the C-element include Schmidt trigger, Eccles-Jordan flip-flop and last moving point flip-flop. For two input signals the C-element is defined by the equation formula_1, which corresponds to the following truth table: This table can be turned into a circuit using the Karnaugh map. However, the obtained implementation is naive, since nothing is said about delay assumptions. To understand under what conditions the obtained circuit is workable, it is necessary to do additional analysis, which reveals that Thus, the naive implementation is correct "only" for
