REQUIRED: CE/EU Declaration of Conformity for the SKU: PL-USB-BLASTER-RCN (FPGA Download Cable User)

Hi

I will not provide customer information on a public forum.

The customer information is not relevant anyway, because we, Mouser USA, purchased the product from Intel and we offer the product to the EU.

When offering the product to the EU, we Mouser USA, are the importer of records. One of the obligations put on the importer, expressed in the CE Directives is that they must hold in their records a copy of the CE/EU Declaration of Conformity of all CE-certified products they offer to the EU market.

So we should already have the CE/EU Declaration of Conformity in our records to comply with the CE directive and be able to offer the product to the EU.

As for INTEL's legal obligation, because PL-USB-BLASTER-RCN is an active product at INTEL, INTEL, as the manufacturer/entity selling under their tradename, has the legal obligation to keep the CE/EU Declaration of Conformity up to date, to ensure the product is meeting the current CE compliance requirement. (These obligations are expressed under the section "Obligations of the Manufacturers" in all the CE DIrectives, see example in the EMC 2014/30/EU directive, ROHS 2011/65/EU directive etc..). Not doing so, would be a breach of compliance.

If the product does not meet the current CE compliance requirement, Intel would stop applying CE to the product.

Is that the case,e or is the product still being CE-marked?

-->If still being CE marked, then up to date CE/EU Declaration of Conformity must be drawn.

-->Equally, if the product is not CE anymore, we, Mouser USA, would need to be told as this would mean the product should not be placed on the EU market anymore.

Thank you
