July 2, 2020 | I-Connect007 Editorial TeamEstimated reading time: Less than a minute
We asked for you to send in your questions for Happy Holden, and you took us up on it! The questions you've posed run the gamut, covering technology, the worldwide fab market, and everything in between. What do you think is the best way to get more colleges and universities to offer some sort of PCB design curriculum?
Q: Do you think that PCB design should be added to an undergraduate EE curriculum?
A: I think it should be an elective that engineering students could take. It is an essential part of the electronics development process, and a PCB design course will work well with a signal and power integrity elective.
