PROGRAM
GSA & IET are pleased to provide the 2010 program focusing on leveraging and
maximising European expertise in analog/mixed-signal, wireless/portability, low-power
applications and quality/reliability to access the emerging markets for silicon growth
in areas that include wireless, smart cards and home networking to name a few. The
Conference will feature speakers from leading semiconductor companies worldwide.
We are pleased to announce a special complimentary technical workshop from
9:00 – 12:00 on 18 May focused on analog/mixed-signal design and model
optimisation, as well as design methodology in the face of "More than Moore." Contact Tiffany Olson to register.
