If this is not appropriate, please let me know.
Is there a "going rate" for contract pcb layout these days? It has been
years since I "subbed" at home, and I am happily employed full time - so I
am NOT looking - just trying to get a feel for the times. Thank you!
Sincerely,

Subject: [DC] Meeting Announcement
The Pacific Northwest Chapter of the IPC Designers Council presents
the renowned author Clive (Max) Maxfield for a no-charge seminar:
---------------------------------------------------------------------
A Non-Threatening Introduction to FPGA's presented by
Clive (Max) Maxfield
---------------------------------------------------------------------
January 26, 2005 1:30 to 3:30 PM at the Intel Jones Farm
Conference Center, Hillsboro, Oregon.
This is a free event.
=====================================================================
Most non-design engineering folks tend to think of Field Programmable
Gate Arrays (FPGAs) as being relatively simple devices containing
large numbers of "islands" of simple blocks of programmable logic
surrounded by a "sea" of programmable interconnect. However, the
power and complexity of these devices has increased dramatically over
recent years. Modern FPGAs can contain large blocks of RAM,
multipliers, DSP functions, soft or hard microprocessor cores,
high-speed (gigabit) serial interfaces, and the list goes on.
Based on the book "The Design Warrior's Guide to FPGA's," the author
- Clive "Max" Maxfield - will introduce the various concepts
associated with modern FPGAs, including architectures and design
tools ranging from virtual prototyping to formal verification. But
the really cool thing is that he will make this interesting and
sitting through this presentation won't make your head hurt!
Clive (Max) Maxfield is president of TechBites Interactive
(www.techbites.com), a marketing consultancy firm specializing in high
technology. Contributing editor to EEDesign (www.EEDesign.com) editor
and publisher of the web-delivered electronics and computing hobbyist
magazine EPE Online (www.epemag.com), and author of several books,
including "Bebop to the Boolean Boogie (An Unconventional Guide to
Electronics)" and "The Design Warrior's Guide To FPGAs," Max was once
referred to as a "semiconductor design expert" by someone famous who
wasn't prompted, coerced, or remunerated in any way
This presentation will be held January 26, 2005 from 1:30-3:30 pm at
Intel Corporation, Jones Farm Campus Jones Farm Conference Center
(JFCC) Auditorium, 2111 N.E. 25th Avenue, Hillsboro, OR 97124.
Registration begins at 1:00 PM.
There will be no fee charged for this event. If desired, you may
apply for membership to the Pacific NW Chapter of the IPC-DC with a
fee of $50. Applications will be available at the presentation.
Please register for this event by January 19, 2005 by replying to this
email or by visiting our website at http://dcchapters.ipc.org/pnw/.
Late registrations contact our Chapter Secretary, Barbara Hill, at
(503) 712-4119.
