The EU RoHS directive makes no mention of the terms RoHS-5 or RoHS 5/6. However, the term RoHS-5 or RoHS 5/6 refers to components and assemblies that are RoHS compliant and contain Pb. In other words, RoHS-5 or RoHS 5/6 compliant components and assemblies that exceed the concentration limits of Pb, but meet the concentration limits for Cd, Hg, Hec-Cr, PBB, and PBDE.
