TOKYO, JAPAN – Valor Computerized Systems has established a technological partnership with Nagoya Electric of Japan, a developer of advanced Automatic Inspection equipment.

The alliance will allow users of Nagoya’s inspection machines to reportedly shorten their setup time by accessing the ODB++ models of the PCB and a specific layer of data that contains a representation of component geometry based on Valor’s Part Library (VPL).

 “We are pleased to welcome Nagoya Electric as a new member of our Global Alliance Program,” said David Bengal, VP Marketing and Business Development at Valor. “The Automatic Inspection market presents a great opportunity for Valor. We believe that this partnership will bring new added value to Nagoya’s large and loyal customer base.”
SAN JOSE, CA – Dr. Eric Bogatin will conduct two seminars covering signal integrity design principles. The first, entitled Essential Principles of Signal Integrity will be held on April 7 and 8 and focuses on building “engineering intuition” concerning signal integrity, and to reveal root causes and resulting design guidelines to eliminate signal integrity problems.

The follow-up seminar on April 9 and 10 is called Best Board Design Practices, which focuses on creating design rules by balancing performance tradeoffs, and learning how to use calculations and analysis tools to answer important design questions in stack up design, differential pair routing, via design, PDN design and more.

The seminar will be held in the Altera Corporation building, located at 101 Innovation Drive in San Jose. Registration information can be found at www.BeTheSignal.com.
