The Pan-European Electronics Design Conference (PEDC) is scheduled for Jan. 29-30 at the NH Danube City hotel in Vienna. IPC’s Peter Tranitz, one of the show organizers, discussed how this new show came about, pointing out that, unlike many of the regional conferences in Europe, PEDC will host curated, peer-reviewed presentations, not promotional content or product pitches. Will PEDC become an annual event?
Happy’s Tech Talk #35: Yields March to Design Rules
12/12/2024 | Happy Holden -- Column: Happy’s Tech TalkUltra high density interconnect (UHDI) has many forms, structures, and alternatives, so capturing all the variations and reducing them to design rules has required some departures from traditional IPC design standards. In this column, I’ll be discussing the IPC UHDI design guidelines and standards. The fundamental question is: “Do you need HDI or microvias?”
Closing the Loop: iNEMI Workshop Addresses Circularity Challenges
12/09/2024 | Kelly Scanlon, IPC Lead Sustainability StrategistThe electronics industry faces increasing pressure from consumers and regulators to implement more circular design principles in their products. While some companies lead the way, many grapple with significant knowledge gaps. These include a lack of clear definitions for "circular economy" in the context of electronics, insufficient data, and inadequate training to apply circular principles effectively across product lifecycles. Additionally, there's a pressing need to understand the return on investment (ROI) and other potential incentives for implementing circular principles.
