CIN::APSE® solderless, high density, custom interconnects are used for board to board, IC to board, flex to board and component to board applications. CIN::APSE® is the most widely implemented crimpless and solderless, high speed, reliable interconnect in the industry. The simple 2-piece, patent protected design enables 50+ Gbps, and wide range of profiles from 0.020” (0.5mm) to over 1.0” (25mm). The number of contacts is unlimited, and the largest connector implemented to date contained 7,396 contacts! The unique contact design assures multiple points of contact in each position and have proven reliability under the most extreme mechanical shock and vibration.

Networking technology and cellular connectivity has advanced rapidly over the last 12 years and although transformative, when designing a new deployment, can be confusing.
This presentation will outline the challenges of legacy networks with increasing traffic, and the complexities of connectivity today. During the session, we will look at future trends and address the question: when will navigating the complex world of IoT get any easier? For device designers and integrators, knowing where to focus is the first challenge. We'll share best approaches and how you can stay ahead in the ever-evolving world of IoT and cellular connectivity.

Rated current values found on datasheets serve as a guide for the selection of passive magnetic components. However, the temperature rise in these components can be influenced by many factors that are not always reported in datasheets by all manufacturers. This gives a false sense of what the rated current values represent.
In this presentation, we aim to introduce a new measurement for rated current adopted by Wurth electronics, based on standard IEC 62024-2:2020. In addition, we provide an online tool for calculating rated current based on PCB/Track dimensions. This gives an accurate measurement for rated current as well as your own design value.

One of the greatest challenges in technical selling is understanding your client’s true needs. Much like when your child asks, with the best of intentions, for their paint set, and the under-cautious will later find that it’s to fix a wedding photo that they spilled juice on, and that the results are not quite aligned with the child’s vision, establishing the underlying reason for a client request often helps to identify a very different, and far more effective solution. Taking a look at real world examples, I’ll attempt to convey Solsta’s approach to bridging the gap between specification and application.

The IP system was designed to incentivise innovation by rewarding human creativity, granting monopolies in exchange for contributing to human knowledge. In a world of laws designed for humans, generative AI raises new questions on how a system designed to reward human ingenuity can be applied in the 5th Industrial Revolution. Starting with a whistle-stop tour of the how, what and why of obtaining patents and registered design protection, this session will look at where IP law stands on the ownership of inventions and designs created using AI, and will consider the challenges and risks that AI brings in IP.

Navigating EMC (Electromagnetic Compatibility) testing can be a daunting and costly process, often leaving manufacturers in the dark about their product's compliance until after they've invested in lab testing. This uncertainty can delay time-to-market and lead to expensive troubleshooting. But what if you could significantly reduce these risks and costs? Join EMC expert Dr. Min Zhang as he reveals how to implement a benchtop pre-compliance EMC test that can streamline your design process, optimize efficiency, and safeguard your bottom line. Discover the essential tools and techniques that will empower your team to confidently tackle EMC challenges before they become costly setbacks.

Modular systems provide high reliability, low cost and long-life cycle solutions for many markets including medical, industrial and harsh environments. They also offer an opportunity to updating obsolete and legacy designs.
In this workshop, we will cover the mechanical descriptions of example modular systems, the benefit in solving manufacturing challenges, how to make electrical connections to a PCB or a pad pin (with an emphasis on custom pad pins), understanding spring pin stroke to overcome tolerance stack-up. It will cover questions for custom design of pogo pins, what components of a pogo and pin that can be modified, technologies that use pogo pins.
It means that designers may get ahead of cost down initiatives by implementing modular design regardless of brand.

Track cycling is one of the fastest Olympic sports, with fractions of a second deciding who will take home a medal. Speed, balance and aerodynamics are integral to a rider’s performance. Therefore, when designing a new track bike for the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, the British Cycling team considered how different manufacturing methods could achieve performance gains. As part of this, it turned to its partner, global engineering technologies company, Renishaw, for additive manufacturing (AM) expertise. Learn more about the design and collaboration behind the cutting-edge bike ridden by Great Britain’s track cyclists at the Paris 2024 Olympic Games.

Honeywell commissioned Wakefield Research to survey AI leaders around the world. The online research, which was conducted from April 22 through May 2, 2024, involved 1,600 executives in 12 global markets (US, Brazil, Canada, China, France, Germany, India, Japan, Mexico, United Kingdom, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, and United Arab Emirates.) Each respondent works at a company with at least 1,000 employees that is currently using AI to automate processes and tasks. All respondents are influencers or decision-makers related to the use of AI within their departments or across their organizations.
This presentation goes into the detail of what was found out by these researchers with useful insights into how your organisation may approach this rapidly evolving new technology and methodology.
