CALL FOR PARTICIPATION -- Deadline extended to February 21

Join us for High Reliability Forum as a presenter or instructor and share your expertise on electronics with high reliability requirements. Go to www.ipc.org/high-reliability for more information. 

With a focus on electronics subjected to harsh use environments, we are seeking speakers to discuss technology drivers leading industry advancements today.

Additional topics include:
•	Connector failure modes and reliability
•	Design and simulation approaches to avoid EMI/EMC and ESD/EOS failures
•	Design for reliability
•	Design rules for spacing and staggered vias
•	Device level reliability, including transistor aging and wear-out
•	Failure modes effects analysis (FMEA)
•	Fatigue behavior and reliability testing for solder joints using next gen solder alloys
•	Harsh environment reliability and testing
•	HDI reliability
•	Materials compatibility
•	Vibration and shock test methods for predicting reliability
•	Microvia concerns and test methods
•	Microvia reliability and design rules
•	3D Package level reliability
•	Reliability assurance and prediction workflows
•	Robustness of interposers and new first level connection methodologies
•	Solder fatigue and the role of underfill, mirroring, and housing
•	System-level effects on solder joint reliability
•	PCBA surface reliability (including cleaning, testing and coating strategies)
•	Thermal mitigation
•	Thermal stress test methods
•	Use of simulation in the design process

Abstracts summarizing original and previously unpublished work must be submitted for consideration to present. Presentations should be non-commercial and describe significant results from experiments, emphasize new techniques, discuss trends of interest and contain technical and/or appropriate test results. Presenting at High Reliability Forum provides visibility for you and your organization.
