Lunch and Learn Series: Safety Design October 17 San Diego, CA Join TÜV SÜD America for our Lunch & Learn series that outlines the necessary requirements for designing safeness into information technology equipment destined for National and International markets. Discussions include review of major sections of the design criteria from the IEC 60950-1 standard including electric shock, energy, fire, mechanical, chemical, radiation and heat hazards. This seminar will show you how to be better prepared to avoid redesigning after compliance testing. www.tuvamerica.com © Photographer: Miflippo | Agency: Dreamstime.com CMRF 2007 October 3 Boston, MA 2007 Workshop on Compact Modeling for RF/ Microwave Applications (CMRF) RF and microwave applications generally impose more serious design constraints than digital applications. It also puts continuously increasing demands on accuracy, smoothness and scaling of the compact models for RF/Microwave devices. Moreover, the RF/Microwave circuit design requires, in an integrated way, advanced compact modeling of active and passive devices including various parasitic effects, like substrate and thermal coupling as well as noise. There is an extensive initiative in academia and industry to address this compact modeling diversity and utilize it into the design of new products. http://hitec.ewi.tudelft.nl/cmrf07 the European Microwave Exhibition constitutes the largest trade show on RF and microwaves in Europe. www.eumw2007.com 2007 International Symposium on Electromagnetic Compatibility October 23 - 26 Qingdao, China The Fourth International Symposium on Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC 2007/ Qingdao) will be held in Qingdao, China at Oct. 23 - 26, 2007. This Symposium will treat a wide range of Electromagnetic Compatibility. www.cie-china.org/emc2007/ Lunch and Learn Series: Surviving Factory Inspections October 11 San Diego, CA Join TÜV SÜD America for our Lunch & Learn series discussing the conduct of factory inspections and the Nationally Recognized Testing Laboratory (NRTL) inspection process. This in-depth discussion will cover a number of topics including how to be better prepared for an inspection, and examine precautionary measures manufacturers can take to avoid falling into non-compliance, which could result in a recall of their products. www.tuvamerica.com EMC By Your Design October 25 - 26 and 29 - 30 Northbrook, IL An EMC Practical Applications Seminar/ Workshop Earn Professional Development Credits (PDH’s) by attending this four-day seminar/workshop that applies EMC design fundamentals to real-life situations. You will learn how to design your product to pass compliance testing, thereby eliminating costly last-minute changes. Donald L. Sweeney and Roger Swanberg, with over 75 combined years of experience in the field of EMC, now bring these EMC design fundamentals to life through hands-on, practical application to real life products. Participants will receive a free copy of the proprietary computer program designed by the instructors to solve the most complex EMC issues. Participants may bring a product of their choice for a free 45-minute individual consultation, during which they will have the opportunity to apply the concepts they have just learned. www.dlsemc.com/class301.htm ATEX for Electrical and Non Electrical Apparatus & Equipment October 4 Webinar Join TÜV SÜD America for a one-hour overview outlining the requirements for approval and scope of the ATEX Directive. You will learn what an organization must do to obtain compliance to sell equipment intended for potentially explosive atmospheres in the European Union, and how it relates to electrical and non-electrical apparatus and equipment. Topics to be covered include: Overview of the ATEX requirements Discussion of equipment groups and categories Differences between the “New” and “Old” Approach Submittal/ approvals process and procedures Preconditions for application And more. www.tuvamerica.com/ CEM-TD 2007 October 15 Perugia, Italy 2007 Workshop on Computational Electromagnetics in Time-Domain (CEM-TD) The Seventh Workshop on Computational Electromagnetics in Time-Domain (CEMTD 2007) will be held in Perugia, Italy from October 15-17, 2007. This conference is organized by the High Frequency Electronics Laboratory (HFE) of the Department of Electronic and Information Engineering (DIEI) of the University of Perugia, Italy, which is pleased to host and invite you for this event. www.diei.unipg.it EMC Exhibition and Conference October 16 - 17 Newbury, United Kingdom Keep up to date with the new directives, components, test techniques, test equipment and latest EMC Modelling software. www.emcuk.co.uk European Microwave Week 2007 October 8 Munich, Germany European Microwave Week provides the opportunity to attend four conferences and various workshops and short courses given by leading experts in their field.
