Electronica 2002 Show Guide
December 31, 1969 |Estimated reading time: 12 minutes
Munich, Germany -- Electronica 2002 bills itself as the largest international trade show for electronics, and with good reason. Held from November 12 through 15 here at the New Munich Trade Fair Centre, more than 3,000 exhibitors will be on hand, and more than 85,000 international visitors from 80 countries are expected to attend.
The show floor is just one dimension of electronica 2002. The Automotive Innovation User Forum, Automotive Innovation Arena, electronic-Arena and The World of MEMS User Forum are included with admission to electronica 2002.
The Automotive Innovation User Forum will host the Automotive Arena, where exhibitors will lead discussions and showcase their new products. Key topics will include functional networking of electronic systems, as well as standardization at various levels. The electronic-Arena will feature live, continuous demonstrations of new products from embedded systems exhibitors, as well as other major electronics producers. Panel discussions on trends will give attendees a chance to interface with experts.
The World of MEMS User Forum will give attendees a forum to learn about the latest MEMS products and trends. MEMS components and subsystems for use in mobile communications, sensor systems, optics and data transmission, automotive systems, and medical technology will be presented during the forum, which takes place every day of electronica.
The 3rd International Congress for the 42-V PowerNet, a supplement to electronica, will continue the automotive theme. Held in the conference center adjacent to electronica, the congress will focus on current system solutions, future developments and specific applications for the automotive industry.
In addition to the special forums, The Embedded Systems Conference will be taking place in conjunction with electronica November 11 through 13. This also is a supplement to electronica. The conference features speakers, seminars and practical training targeted to engineers and engineering managers developing microprocessor-based electronic systems. General topics include architecture selection and specification, software design, programming and debugging, and hardware/software integration.
A key panel discussion, "Expanding Horizons: Where Is the Semiconductor Industry Off To?" will take place on November 12 at 11 a.m. The panel features three US panelists:
- Derek Lidow, CEO and president, iSuppli Corp.
- Fred Shlapak, executive vice president and president, SemiconductorProducts Sector, Motorola Inc.
- Joe Martin, chief financial officer, Fairchild SemiconductorInternational

PRODUCTSX-ray Tube/High Voltage SourceDynaRad brand Monoblock is said to integrate X-ray tube and high voltage source technology into a sub-system, providing equipment designers an option for quality imaging in various applications. Monoblock's single sub-system technology is said to eliminate the need for cable connectors, which can be subject to frequent breakdowns. Its compact, cable-free design is said to allow for more expensive imaging systems that deliver consistent performance with minimal maintenance in medical diagnostic X-ray systems and for industrial and analytical X-ray applications used for airport security or detection of fissures in metal or concrete. Del Power Conversion Group, Valhalla, N.Y. www.delpower.com. Hall B2, Stand 146
RF Silicon and Systems SolutionsRF products range from tuners, transceivers, up-converters and amplifiers to complete Bluetooth system-on-chip solutions. These products are said to provide the critical technology that permits the delivery and exchange of video, voice or data across broadband or wireless networks. When integrated into manufacturers' consumer devices, the products reportedly enable the most popular, advanced entertainment or communications applications available today. Microtune GmbH & Co. KG, Ingolstadt, Germany. www.microtune.com. Hall A5, Stand 321
Switch TechnologyMagnaMouse multi-directional switch technology has been adapted under a metal overlay in a full keyboard construction to demonstrate the advantages the product offers in kiosk applications. The metal overlay adds an additional layer of protection to the product, and is said to provide it at a lower cost than other technologies, Demmel AG, Licensee of Duraswitch, Germany. www.demmel.de.
