Who should attend?

The seminar is targeted at practising electronics and PCB designers who have some knowledge of basic circuit board design and are familiar with modern multilayer board technology, layer stackups and placement/routing methodologies.

The course is designed to help board designers and electronics engineers of all levels appreciate the many subtle radio frequency issues that often make the difference between success and failure on tough RF board designs.

Covering a moderate amount of theory, the seminar has a very practical slant towards real world problems faced by modern circuit board designers.
