and Circuits Assembly magazines, focuses on PCB engineering, design and
fabrication, high density interconnect (HDI) and other advanced
circuits. The event is comprised of a 3-Day Technical Conference and a
Professional Development Certificate program, and a two-day exhibition
of industry vendors held on September 16 and 17.
Suggested topics for papers and presentations for the 3-Day Technical Conference include:
30-minute paper sessions
One-hour lectures, presentations or panel sessions
Two-hour workshops or panel sessions
Half-day (3.5 hour) seminars

Advanced Interconnections Corporation introduces Mezza-pede, SMT connectorsdesigned for 1 mm-pitch micro board-to-board and flex cable-to-board applications. With a low profile, the screw-machined system is well suited for numerous high reliability applications, such as providing power to tunable lasers. The pin and lead frame design is fully surface mountable, and Mezza-pede has a mated height of 4 mm. Features include screw-machined terminals with multi-finger contacts with a per contact current rating of greater than 1 Amp at 80° C. Mezza-pede comes in standard dual row 8- and 14- position models. Other pin counts and optional enhancements are offered. www.advanced.com
