Hi,
I am no longer directly involved with embedded passives.  Would it be possible
to take me off the mailing list?
Many thanks.

Subject: [EM] Workshop Announcement

Design and Process Implementation for Embedded Passives Technology
April 14-15, 2004 at IPC's Headquarters in Northbrook, IL

Open panel discussion April 16, 2004 at Motorola, Inc.

Instructors: Dennis Fritz, MacDermid, Inc.; John (Jack) Fisher, Interconnect
Technology Analysis, Inc.; Richard Snogren, Coretec Denver, Inc; .Dieter Bergman
IPC; and John Andresakis, Oak-Mitsui, Inc.

With the explosive growth of wireless technology and high speed/frequency
circuits, implementing embedded passives component technology has become vital
to electronics manufacturing.

Saving assembly real estate is no longer just an important benefit since
performance often requires that resistor and capacitor devices be close to the
power I/Os of the semiconductor.  Embedded passive technology fulfills this
requirement.

This two day workshop will cover the how and why of conditions in the materials
and assembly processes that impact product performance. The difference between
integrated and embedded passive components will be explained.

This course will provide understanding and know-how for those involved in design
and manufacturing process implementation. Risk assessment and trade-offs of
embedded passive technology and its integral involvement in the interconnect
substrate will be also covered.

IPC thanks Motorola, Inc. for opening up their facility for an open panel
discussion with engineers from Motorola and other industry representatives who
are using embedded passive component technology. Get a first-hand insight into
how the implementation of embedded passives technology has improved performance
and reduced the costs of their electronic products.
