Written by Tracy Heffner
Monday, 19 March 2007
ATLANTA – UP Media Group Inc.(UPMG) has extended the Call for Abstracts deadline for PCB Design Conference East 2007 to April 17, 2007. PCB East will be held on October 21-26, 2007, in Durham, NC, which is located only minutes from North Carolina's famed Research Triangle Park.
PCB East is the premier, annual East Coast conference and exhibition for emerging technologies used in the design and manufacture of printed circuit boards (PCBs), programmable logic devices (PLDs), multi-chip modules (MCMs), high density interconnect (HDI), flexible circuits and related technologies. This event is sponsored by Printed Circuit Design & Manufacture and Circuits Assembly magazines.
The five-day conference focuses on printed circuit board design, engineering and manufacturing. It is comprised of a three-day Technical Conference and a Professional Development Certificate program of one-day and two-day courses.
PCB East 2007 also includes a two-day exhibition (Oct. 23-24) of top industry vendors of products and services for electronic design automation (EDA), engineering/design services, prototyping, fabrication, assembly, etc.
Papers and presentations of the following durations are sought for the Technical Conference: 30-minute paper sessions, one-hour lectures or panel sessions, two-hour workshops, and half-day (3.5 hour) seminars. Papers and presentations also are sought for a Professional Development Certificate program of in-depth, one-day and two-day technical tutorials.
For consideration, e-mail your course title(s), suggested course length(s), 100- to 300-word course abstract(s), "who should attend" recommendation(s), and speaker bio(s) to Conference Co-Chair Kathy Nargi-Toth (knargitoth@upmediagroup.com) and Show Manager Alyson Skarbek (askarbek@upmediagroup.com) by April 17, 2007.
Papers and presentations must be noncommercial in nature and should focus on technology, techniques or methodology rather than on a company’s specific products.
Suggested paper and presentation topics include (but are not limited to): - High speed, high frequency and signal integrity - Component placement - EMI/EMC analysis - Thermal analysis - Lead-free processes (especially how they affect design and fabrication) - RF and microwave design - Packaging design - Mixed-signal design - Area arrays - FPGA design and implementation - Embedded passives and active devices - Flexible circuitry - HDI design and technologies - PCB design/layout basics - Component library creation and management - Design for manufacture, test and assembly - Design (including analog, digital and power supplies) - PCB fabrication - Soldering - Surface finishes - Industry forecasts - Business and design/supply chain issues
If selected for PCB East 2007, final papers and presentations will be due in August 2007 for inclusion on the proceedings CD-ROM. All Technical Conference papers and presentations are published in the conference proceedings and distributed to conference attendees, exhibitors and speakers. (Submissions selected for the Professional Development Certificate program are not included in the proceedings.)
Each speaker/presenter will receive a copy of the technical conference proceedings CD-ROM, a complimentary pass for the three-day technical conference, and complimentary admission to the two-day exhibition, and other special events.
