Join IPC in Scarborough, Ontario, Canada Providing everything designers need today! Design for Manufacture workshop August 13-14, 2007 Instructors: Dieter Bergman, IPC & Richard Snogren, Bristlecone, LLC Designing printed boards is more difficult today than ever before. Printed board designers are faced with the continuing design issues of surface mount vs. through hole technology, what materials to use, board size and layer count, how to incorporate electrical testing, what new specifications are being used in the design process and many other topics. IPC Global Design Conference: Designing Better Today for Tomorrow August 15-16, 2007 Join IPC at the premier technical conference for the hottest issues being faced in today's electronics industry. OEMs, fabricators, and PCB designers are all working to optimize their products and processes for lead free and design production. The best way for companies to stay on top of the game is to educate their designers. Let's face it; the design of the PC board starts with the designer. The design, in turn, affects the end product, and ultimately the bottom-line.
