Visit Altium at BOOTH 314 From the PCB West 2016 Conference Chair It was 25 years ago when UP Media Group founder Pete Waddell, then editor of Printed Circuit Design, launched PCB West. Originally conceived as an in-depth training ground for PCB designers, it has evolved into the premier conference and exhibition for the PCB supply chain in the Silicon Valley. Consider just how far the industry has come in that time! We welcome all designers, fabricators and assemblers again this year as we celebrate our 25th anniversary September 13 - 15 at the Santa Clara Convention Center! This event focuses on the design and manufacture of PCBs, HDI, electronics assembly and printed circuit board test, and gives engineers, designers, fabricators, assemblers and managers an opportunity to improve skills, increase knowledge and network with peers, colleagues and experts. Our three-day conference features: • More than 70 presentations on the hottest topics, including RF and microwave, grounding and new components - our largest conference yet! • More than 20 day-long tutorials or half-day seminars • Sessions for all levels of experience and training, from novice designer and engineer to seasoned pro • Speakers from Keysight, TTM Technologies, NXP Semiconductor and many more top companies • The ever-popular Rick Hartley, Eric Bogatin and Susy Webb • Three free day-long tracks on Wednesday, September 14, with topics ranging from signal integrity and common design errors to electronics assembly reliability. Also this week, a special 2.5-day IPC Designers Council Certification Program powered by EPTAC. Attend all three days for your best value, or attend for one day. And remember, all conference attendees receive FREE admittance to the one-day exhibition Wednesday, September 14, which includes a complimentary luncheon and evening reception, both on the show floor. In recognition of 25 years of PCB West, we thank all our past and present speakers, exhibitors and, most of all, attendees. We do this for you. Looking forward to seeing you at the show!

That’s why Rogers Corporation invested so much time and energy into creating an array of material-based thermal management solutions to keep heat rise to a minimum in printed circuits. From automotive circuits to LED modules to power supplies, ML Series laminates and prepregs effectively conduct heat away from the source, while COOLSPAN thermally & electrically conductive adhesive (TECA) materials enhance the thermal management of new and existing designs. And for that extra cooling edge, 92ML StaCool laminates feature a thermally conductive metal bottom plate to enhance the heat dissipation. www.rogerscorp.com/acs Don’t let your temperatures rise.
