www.us-tech.com Steve Wozniak Shares Insight at MD&M East
Santa Monica, CA — UBM is hosting cofounder of Apple and chief scientist at Primary Data, Steve “Woz” Wozniak, who will take the stage on June 13 for a keynote event at UBM’s New York trade show and conference. At the advanced design and
manufacturing event, the cult icon will discuss a range of topics that span his experience at Apple, as well as today’s leading tech trends such as robotics, IoT, wearables, and big
data, among others. UBM’s advanced design and manufacturing event will be held June 13-15 at the Jacob K. Javitz convention center in New York City. The event comprises six expos presented alongside one anoth- er, including Automation Technology Expo (ATX) East, Design & Manufacturing (D&M) Atlantic, EASTPACK, Medical Design & Manufacturing (MD&M) East, PLASTEC East, and Quality Expo.
Nanotechnology in Packaging
Highlighted at ICSR Markham, Ontario, Canada — The International Conference on Soldering and Reliability (ICSR) is a highly-technical, three-day event where attendees gather to share their knowledge on topics including solder R&D, solder joint reliability, technology trends, contamination and cleanliness testing, failure modes and mitigation, and defect detection. Held from June 6-8 at Edward
Village Markham in Toronto, high- lights of the event include keynote presentations by Charles E. Bauer, PhD, senior managing director of TechLead Corp., and Jasbir Bath of Bath Consultancy LLC/Koki Solder. Dr. Bauer’s keynote talk is enti-
tled “Nanotechnology in Electronics Packaging, Interconnect and Assembly: Hype or Reality?” While often exaggerated and over-prom- ised, nanotechnology now provides vital performance enhancements to electronic systems after more than a decade of R&D. Advanced solders and adhe-
sives pioneered nanotech adoption by electronics manufacturers by minimizing technical risk and mask- ing their nanotechnological nature through drop-in alternatives. Hype gives way to breakthrough as new nanotech solutions address multiple aspects of packaging, interconnect and assembly. Leading nanotech contributions
today include surface finishes for stencils and tin whisker mitigation, adhesives, die attach and solder replacements, via structures, addi- tive circuit formation and 3D print- ing, novel conductors and dielectrics, and passive components. Jasbir Bath will focus his pres-
entation on the importance of design to improve manufacturing process yield and reliability. The importance of board pad design and stencil aper- ture design can be overlooked in the rush to assembly products in a time- ly manner. The presentation will discuss
how optimizing board pad design Continued on next page

San Francisco, CA “I am really looking forward to
speaking at UBM’s event in New York. This seems to be the conference when it comes to innovation and design within the manufacturing field,” said Wozniak. “During my ses- sion on June 13, I look forward to offering insight into emerging trends in technology and how those may impact design and manufacturing.” Steve Wozniak has helped
shape the computing industry with his design of Apple’s first line of products, the Apple I and II. He began his career in 1976, when he and Steve Jobs famously founded
Apple Computer with Wozniak’s Apple I personal computer. The fol- lowing year, Wozniak introduced his Apple II personal computer, which was integral in launching the person- al computer industry. In 1985, Wozniak was awarded the National Medal of Technology by the President of the United States for his achievements at Apple, which is con- sidered the highest honor given to America’s leading innovators.
