> Hello All,
>
> On September 11, Rick Hartley is coming to Houston to present a
> High
> Speed Design and Controlled Impedance workshop at the Great
> Southwest
> Equestrian Center off I10 in Katy. Rick is a highly respected
> speaker
> who serves as chairman of the High speed design focus module for
> the
> IPC and is a member of the IPC-D-275 subcommittee. This is a one
> day
> course with a registration fee of $80, continental Breakfast and
> Lunch
> Provided. A workbook will be provided and there will be a table
> set up
> containing information on products related to this course. This
> same
> course has been offered elsewhere for registration up to $300.
> This
> class is geared for engineers, technicians, printed circuit board
>
> designeres, and others who work with designs, such as
> manufacturing
> and fabrication engineers. The proceeds will go to help bring
> more
> educational workshops to the Houston area through the local IPC
> Designers Council.
>
> If you are interested, please contact Russel Pringle
> (281)596-6620,
> Patrick Jabbaz (281)596-6697, or myself Susy Webb (281)647-7241.
> Please forward this to anyone you feel would benefit from this

> Training to get you up to speed

> Design rules that have worked in the past will no longer yield
> acceptable results. New design rules and parameters must be
> established to assure a
> functional printed circuit board (PCB). This workshop is a clear,
>
> in-depth study of the concepts and practices needed today by
> designers, engineers
> and others close to the printed circuit design function to
> successfully design and fabricate PCBs using the higher speed ICs
> of
> today and the very high speed devices of tomorrow.
>
>
>
> Topics to be covered
>
> A definition of the high speed/transmission line environment.
>
> Why we need to control the impedance of PC board traces.
>
> The effect the PC board's natural inductance and capacitance have
> on
> the circuit and the transmission line.
>
> The fundamentals of wave propagation and signal attenuation.
>
> Correct power distribution and decoupling.
>
> Impedance modeling, impedance equations, impedance/reflection
> control
> techniques.
>
> PC board trace routing & stubs and device loading.
>
> Crosstalk and EMI- Sources and resolution.
>
> PC board layer structuring and material characteristics.
>
> Impedance testing, fabrication concerns and notes to the
> fabricator.
>
>
> All Attendees will receive a comprehensive workbook on High Speed
>
> Design which can be utilized as a future
> reference when designing High Speed printed circuit boards.
>
>
>
> Who Should Attend
>
> Printed circuit designers, engineers, and anyone else needing a
> clear
> understanding of high speed printed circuit design. Others who
> work
> with designers, such as manufacturing engineers involved in the
> fabrication of PCBs, will learn the related manufacturing issues
