REACH Declaration: TDK and EPCOS | Where to find it and what it must contain

TDK and EPCOS (Japan) makes capacitors, inductors, ferrites, varistors, sensors and EMC components. This page explains where their REACH documentation is published and how to tell whether the document you receive is usable.

Look up TDK and EPCOS on Fossick

Fossick locates published REACH and RoHS documents for TDK and EPCOS, records the issue date and the exemptions claimed, and tells you when one changes.

Where TDK and EPCOS publishes it

Start at https://www.tdk.com and go to Company, then Sustainability, with legacy parts on the TDK Electronics site.

What to check in this category

TDK absorbed EPCOS and older parts still carry EPCOS numbering with documentation on a separate site, so a bill of materials predating the merger sends you to the wrong place. Varistors and ferrites also raise questions on metal oxides and cobalt compounds that a ceramic capacitor declaration does not cover.
