Electronic Packaging


 This one-day seminar on the electronic packaging aspects of EMC is intended for  mechanical and electronic packaging engineers.  Emphasis is on proper shielding and enclosure design.  In addition, the subjects of cabling, cable shielding, and electrostatic discharge protection are discussed.  This seminar duplicates some material found in the Shielding and ESD Protection in Equipment Design seminars.

Although primarily intended for mechanical engineers; electrical engineers, technical managers, and technicians who want a better understanding of electronic packaging have also found this material to be useful.
