In this video interview from the show, Randy Cherry, IPC's director of validation services, gives Guest Editor Judy Warner his annual update on IPC's Validation Services, which is growing along with ever-increasing IoT and connectivity. As Randy notes, cable and wire harnesses have been keeping the validation teams quite busy lately, for a variety of reasons.
