Yes.

Electronic parts on PCB generally contain lead and other sulfides. In the past decades, many manufacturers have said that they will not use electronic components containing lead, but it is not credible and possible. Lead is an important material in electronic components. It is practical to reduce lead but impossible to eliminate it.

How can I connect my small PCB with sensor to the bigger PCB?

My small PCB is mounting a very sensitive fragile sensor on the top surface that has to be wire bonded to the PCB, so I am trying to design a smaller PCB that can be surface mounted to the bigger PCB. How can I get some kind of thin footprint for interconnecting the two PCB boards?
