DesignCon Kicks Off Its 25th Anniversary Show
January 30, 2020 | Andy Shaughnessy, Design007Estimated reading time: Less than a minute
DesignCon’s 25th anniversary show got underway yesterday, and the I-Connect007 Editorial Team was there, meeting with some of the industry’s top electronics engineers, technologists and managers.
The trade show and conference that is literally “by engineers, for engineers” rang in its silver anniversary with a busy show floor and a variety of keynotes, panels and sessions. Most of the attendees and exhibitors we’ve met with say that their companies are still expanding, and many are still in hiring mode. If anyone in this segment is looking for a job, even for a lateral move, this is a great time for you.
One of the highlights of the first day was Eric Bogatin’s “So You Think You Understand What a TDR Measures” in the Chiphead Theater, just off the show floor. Eric was working the crowd, asking for help from the audience and tossing candy bars to anyone who had a correct answer.
The first day closed with a champagne toast to the show’s first 25 years.
Enjoy the slide show below from the first day of DesignCon 2020.

Root-cause Analysis and Problem-solving
11/01/2024 | Happy Holden, I-Connect007An essential skill for any process engineer in printed circuit fabrication is the ability to conduct root-cause analysis (RCA) and problem-solving. These are related to TQC and Six Sigma applications and are essential for customer support and continued profitability. All engineers will encounter these methods sooner or later, but it will likely be sooner if you are in product or process engineering in manufacturing.

Build Better 2024 Summit: Creating a Vision for Future Tech
10/18/2024 | Marcy LaRont, I-Connect007Most likely, there aren’t many manufacturing summits that take place on an aircraft carrier, so it was pretty impressive to be on the USS Hornet, with a beautiful view of the San Francisco harbor at Build Better 2024 on Wednesday, October 16, 2024. Billed as “the only manufacturing summit for engineering and operations leaders developing electronics”, the event was quite interesting.
