iNEMI Roadmap Highlights Series
Portable & Wireless - Wednesday, May 6, 2020
Smart Manufacturing - Wednesday, May 13, 2020
Webinars are open to anyone; advance registration is required.
Portable & Wireless
Highlights of iNEMI’s Portable & Wireless chapter will include critical factors that enable portable and wireless devices to continue leading electronics manufacturing in production volumes and technical breakthroughs. A variety of key products and services offered in the portable and wireless space demand innovations in advanced packaging, design and miniaturization. Transitioning from 4G LTE to 5G mmWave-based communications protocols introduces unique challenges that are expected to drive disruptive changes in packaging, testing strategies and integration trends in smartphone and other portable chipsets. Major trends such as cost and form factor, co-design and tool needs, shifts in the supply chain structure, and the impact of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) in the mobile space will be presented.
