BACK BY POPULAR DEMAND -- John Watson explores how artificial intelligence (AI) is revolutionizing printed circuit board (PCB) design in this must-attend webinar, "The AI Advantage in PCB Design: Tools and Trends." This session will provide a deep dive into the transformative impact of AI on the PCB design process, helping engineers and designers tackle challenges with greater efficiency and innovation.
The webinar begins with an introduction to AI's fundamental role in modern PCB design. Participants will learn how AI enhances traditional workflows, offering capabilities beyond human limitations. From circuit optimization to error reduction, AI enables faster, smarter, and more precise design outcomes.
Through real-world examples, the session will highlight how AI is being used to solve common PCB design challenges, such as managing complex routing patterns, improving thermal performance, and reducing the time spent on iterative design revisions. These case studies will show how companies have integrated AI to address bottlenecks, reduce costs, and accelerate product development timelines.
Additionally, this webinar will explore the potential hurdles of adopting AI technologies in PCB design. Topics will include data preparation, the need for effective collaboration between engineers and AI systems, and the importance of validating AI-driven recommendations. Attendees will also get a glimpse into the future of AI in PCB design, including its role in fully autonomous design systems and its integration with next-generation technologies like augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR).
What Participants Will Learn
1. How AI is transforming the design process in general.
2. The benefits of using AI are in improving efficiency and accuracy.
3. Key features and capabilities of AI-powered tools.
4. Real-world examples of AI solving design challenges.
5. Common challenges when adopting AI technologies.
6. Exciting future possibilities for AI in design and engineering.

Shaping the Electronics of the Future: Ensuring Quality & Long-Term Reliability through Standards. Join us for the 2024 IPC Day Italy, taking place on Thursday 3 October 2024 at the Ferrari Museo in Maranello.
When a cyber break-in occurs, the IT team alone will not be able to respond to the attack. The detection is limited to what is available from the IT and network equipment, as opposed to the normal day-to-day behavior that is available to the IT team. Differences from the normal behavior of the production line can only be detected on the production line. No matter how good the IT system is, if the initial response of the people on the production line is slow, the impact of a cyber incident will be much greater. Today, the electronics manufacturing industry is shifting from China, Europe, and the United States to Southeast Asia, including Vietnam, India, and Thailand. Local education and onsite practice is essential.
In this webinar, participants will learn about exercises and best practices for Business Continuity Disaster Recovery (BCDR). This knowledge will help understand what needs to be accomplished at their local factories.
The weakest link in the supply chain can be a target, as demonstrated by the Japanese auto plant that was forced to shut down due to an attack on a single supplier. By applying the lessons from this webinar, participants will be well-prepared for potential cyber attacks, minimizing the risk to their entire, interconnected supply network and the broader electronics manufacturing industry. It is an action that will not be specified in the requirements of the IPC standard for cybersecurity (IPC-1792), but will be mandatory for implementation. The following topics will be covered:
-Practice Demands
-Recognition of current and goal setting
-Preparation (awareness creation)
-Business Continuity Disaster Recovery (BCDR)
-Characteristics of the factory
-Criteria for detection and judgment (risk extraction method)
-Differentiation between failure and attack
-Process of early recovery
-Guidance for BCDR measures policy (BCDR viewpoints, characteristics of factories, requirements for BCDR)
-Overview of BCDR measures
-Conduct incident response practice
-IPC-1792 and practice
