During IPC APEX EXPO 2020 in San Diego, California, the I-Connect007 Editorial Team met with some of the industry's top executives, managers, and engineers.
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.
IPC APEX EXPO is the largest PCB industry event in North America. The next IPC APEX EXPO will be held January 26-28, 2021, at the San Diego Convention Center.
