FLEX Conference to Co-locate with SEMICON West in 2022
November 3, 2021 | SEMIEstimated reading time: 1 minute
SEMICON West, North America’s premier microelectronics exhibition and conference that unites players across the entire electronics manufacturing and design supply chain, and FLEX Conference, the annual event focused on flexible hybrid and printed electronics innovations, will co-locate at the Moscone Center in San Francisco, July 11-14, 2022. Registration for both events will open next spring.
“Flexible hybrid electronics (FHE) technologies are key drivers of digital transformation as they advance to enable smart transportation, buildings and infrastructure, equipment sensorization, and wearable and conformable medical devices,” said Dr. Melissa Grupen-Shemansky, SEMI CTO and vice president of SEMI Technology Communities. “Next year’s co-location of SEMICON West 2022 and FLEX Conference 2022 will gather microelectronics and FHE leaders to explore new innovation opportunities across both industries as they work together to advance system-level products through critical technologies such as heterogeneous integration.”
“With collaboration the fuel of microelectronics innovation, the co-location of SEMICON West 2022 and FLEX Conference 2022 promises to uncover new ways for semiconductor and FHE leaders to accelerate global digitization in ways that continue to improve how we work and live,” said David Anderson, president of SEMI Americas.
FLEX Conference, in its 20th year, showcases innovations emerging from public-private partnerships formed by SEMI Technology Communities SEMI-FlexTech, SEMI-NBMC (Nano-Bio Materials Consortium) and SEMI-NextFlex. At FLEX Conference 2022, keynotes, panels discussions, technical sessions, and product-based TechTALKS will highlight the latest advances in flexible and printed electronics, including applications that deepen interactions between users and their surroundings. The event will focus on equipment, processes, materials and applications driving the latest technology breakthroughs and how they help shape business strategy.
The Design Automation Conference (DAC), the largest meeting in the electronic design automation (EDA) industry, will also co-locate with SEMICON West 2022. Registration will open in the spring of 2022.

Flexible Thinking: Rules of Thumb: A Word to the Wise
11/20/2024 | Joe Fjelstad -- Column: Flexible ThinkingIn the early days of electronics manufacturing—especially with PCBs—there were no rules. Engineers, scientists, and technicians largely felt their way around in the dark, making things up as they went along. There was a great deal of innovation, guessing, and testing to make sure that early guidelines and estimates were correct by testing them. Still, they frequently made mistakes.
I-Connect007 Editor’s Choice: Five Must-Reads for the Week
11/15/2024 | Marcy LaRont, I-Connect007We have quite a mix in this week’s must-reads. The November issue of Design007 Magazine was published, and you don’t want to miss Andy Shaughnessy’s column. This week, we also have a discussion of long-flex PCBs with CEE PCB’s Jerome Larez, and we revisit my forward-looking interview with Dr. Evelyne Parmentier of Dyconex. Jim Will gives us an update on the many things that have transpired in his first five months as executive director at USPAE. Finally, Happy Holden’s next installment of Happy’s Tech Talk looks into the weaknesses of CAD drawings by using a famous Escher print as an example. Happy is definitely one of a kind.

Global PCB Connections: A Technical Overview of Long-flex Printed Circuit Boards
11/14/2024 | Jerome Larez -- Column: Global PCB ConnectionsFlex printed circuit boards are an essential advancement in the electronics industry, enabling the development of flexible, lightweight, and durable electronic designs. As technology has evolved, long-flex PCBs have emerged as a key component in applications requiring extended or intricate routing paths. Because of their use in automotive, commercial, and medical devices, designers are becoming more comfortable designing PCBs with this technology. This column will explore their attributes and role in modern products. I will also offer some essential tips for designing with manufacturability in mind.
