A COURSE ON EMBEDDED PASSIVES

 

Learn How to Embed Resistors and Capacitors in Your Printed Circuit Boards Now!

 

 

 

"While CAD tool providers are working on tool solutions, there is an interim gap. This gap can be easily bridged by a manual process within existing CAD tools. This course will teach the participants how to design discrete capacitors and resistors with commercially available materials that can be readily embedded into the PCB by the board manufacturer.

The 3 hour course includes a review of available embedded passive resistor and capacitor materials and their related manufacturing processes. It will also provide an association of design rules and manufacturing processes. The primary focus of the course is to provide “how to” guidelines for PCB designers to implement embedded passives now. It includes a technology selection process, how to create parts, how to embed them and how to bridge the design tool gap."

 

About Richard Snogren:

 

Richard Snogren has a Bachelor of Science degree in chemistry and biology and over thirty-five years experience in engineering and management.  During that period, Richard developed and patented ablative materials for military and aerospace use; authored numerous papers and articles on structural and dielectric materials for electronic applications; and wrote a compressive technical book entitled “Handbook of Surface Preparation for Adhesion”. 

 

Richard is also a member and active participant in the Advanced Embedded Passives Technology (AEPT) research consortium, funded by the US government.  He has researched and developed processes for embedding ceramic thick-film materials into organic PCB substrates.  He has authored numerous papers and conducted many workshops on embedded passive technology.

 

Snogren was co-founder and president of SAS Circuits (now Coretec Denver) a respected supplier to the aerospace and defense sectors of the PCB industry.  Currently Richard is senior staff engineer for Coretec Inc., an Interconnection Manufacturing Service (IMS) provider.  His responsibilities include implementation of embedded passives, as well as high reliability aerospace product development.


Some comments from former attendees
,

 

"Your presentation was very helpful for me to understand the current embedded-passive technology... I'd like to share my learning experience with my colleagues." - Changsup Ryu, Principal Engineer/ Ph.D., SAMSUNG ELECTRO-MECHANICS CO., LTD.

 

"I very much enjoyed the workshop you presented...It was very informative and provided me with a good foundation for this emerging technology... Once again thank you for your presentation." - Gregory Phipps - Design Manager, Advanced Interconnect Technologies, Inc.
 

This meeting is a 'must not miss' chance for you to get all of the detailed information on how to conquer the space limitations of that next design with embedded passives! This complimentary course is being presented by CORETEC as part of their continuing educational outreach to designers and engineers. Don't miss this opportunity.
