Just a quick heads-up to all:
The North Texas Chapter (Dallas) just had Dave do his thing this week.
It was very interesting, informative, and fun.
What more could you ask for?
Don't miss it!

Presenting: David Hoover of Multek, Inc.
- CAUTION - High Speed Zone Ahead!
6:00PM Tuesday, May 25th, 2004 at Overland Storage, San Diego, CA
Topic Description:
A discussion on Controlled Impedance - High-Speed Design Guidelines and
Capabilities and Low Loss Materials (including Low Loss Substrates and
High
Frequency) Presented by David Hoover - Sr. Field Applications Engineer,
Multek, Inc. and Leena Gulia - OEM Marketing Engineer, Park/Nelco
The presentation will discuss many of the typical issues encountered
with
modeling, specifying, and testing Controlled Impedance (CI) PCBs.
Starting
with a list of conditions identifying when a PCB may require CI, the
presentation will explore the various techniques used today to model CI
from
the Motorola MECL formulae through 3D Field Solvers. Examples will be
presented on how entry variables can affect the calculated results based
on
the modeling software parameters. Additionally, they will cover common
Dk
ranges found in standard Epoxy based FR-4 along with typical Er
expectations
found at higher frequencies. Discussion on low loss substrates along
with
what is currently being used to gain higher data rates (10 and up to 40
GHz)
on multilayer PCBs and the cost implications of switching between
material
sets.
David Hoover is employed by Multek Technology acting as a (field) Staff
Application Engineer based in the San Jose area. Dave's experience
includes
27+ years of Printed Circuit Industry experience. Dave is active in the
IPC
and sits on a few subcommittees, including the Controlled Impedance
Circuit
Boards and High Speed Logic Design subcommittee. He has been a member of
The
Technical Program Committee for the last three years of IPC Expo
Conference's.Dave's engineering expertise includes high performance
materials, Signal Integrity Analysis, and PCB Surface Finishes.
Leena Gulia works for Park Nelco as an OEM Marketing Engineer. She is
