ATLANTA, GA – JUNE 12, 2018 – PCB West today announced this year’s conference will feature two full tracks worth of free presentations on Wednesday, September 12, with topics ranging from signal integrity to 3D printing and common design errors.

A third track, the new CAD Tool Corner, will cover the design gamut, from component libraries to simulation and collaboration within the ECAD-MCAD software flow. The CAD Tool Corner takes place Tuesday, September 11.

Rick Hartley, the most popular speaker in the history of PCB West, will kick off “Free Wednesday” with a talk on routing and termination for control of signal integrity. Other speakers are from Intel, AsteelFlash, TTM Technologies, Nano Dimension, Creation Technologies and other leading companies.

In all, the three tracks will include 15 free presentations. Among others, topics include:

•    Prototype design
•    HDI standards and design rules
•    AI and machine learning
•    3D printed electronics
•    Preventing the 10+ 21 most common design errors
•    Data transfer within the Industry 4.0 environment
•    PCB interposer design
•    Optimizing hardware for IoT solutions

The CAD Tool Corner takes place September 11, while Free Wednesday tracks take place September 12, the same day as the sold-out exhibition. The trade show features more than 100 companies showing the latest in printed circuit design software, fabrication and assembly services.  

“We are excited to offer more than two full days’ worth of free sessions, with loads of valuable content for designers and all types of engineers,” said UPMG vice president and conference chair Mike Buetow.  “And where else could you come hear great instructors like Rick Hartley for free?”
