UBM Tech, the daily source of essential business and technical information for decision makers in the electronics industry, will welcome thousands of influential members of the chip, package and board design communities to DesignCon 2014, January 28 – 31, at the Santa Clara Convention Center in Santa Clara, California. Recognized as the premier annual trade event and technical conference dedicated to the pervasive nature of signal integrity at all levels of electronic design, DesignCon will host Keynote Speakers from Intel, Micron Technologies and XPRIZE. DesignCon has also reinforced its commitment to STEM with two new initiatives: a Next-Gen volunteer program geared toward students and emerging engineers and a Bay Area Girl Geek Dinner on Thursday, January 30th.
The DesignCon 2014 Technical Conference will feature more than 100 conference sessions organized under one of 14 tracks designed to address the latest developments in a range of industry-specific categories including: signal and power integrity, PCB design tools and methodologies, parallel and memory interface design, high-speed serial design, wireless and photonic design and integration, and jitter and crosstalk among many others. To help attendees manage their time and priorities and make the most of their show experience, DesignCon is providing an interactive schedule builder that is compatible with the DesignCon Mobile App. Available in iPhone/iPad, Android, and mobile web versions, the DesignCon Mobile App automatically populates with individuals’ online Schedule Builder selections, as well as provides users with an attendee directory, exhibitor listings, location-based check-ins, badging, and Twitter and Facebook interactivity.
