After months of planning and anticipation, the DesignCon Present and Convention will happen on the Santa Clara Conference Heart in Santa Clara, CA, from January 31 by way of February 2.
This 12 months’s present will embody three days of training, reveals, and networking, by way of a myriad of technical paper periods, tutorials, business panels, product demos, and expo corridor and social capabilities.
DesignCon’s 14-track convention program, created by engineers for engineers, will present helpful nuts-and-bolts info for design engineers starting from concept to sensible purposes. Some areas coated embody sign and energy integrity, chip I/O and energy modeling, photonics and wi-fi in electrical design, supplies and processing, high-speed hyperlink and superior I/O interface design, interconnects modeling and evaluation, check and measurement, machine studying and AI, and 5G and communications.
Moreover a wealthy array of technical periods, DesignCon may also characteristic panel periods the place business leaders will current their views on chosen matters. Whereas many of those periods will happen in convention rooms off the present flooring, a number of may also happen within the Chiphead Theater, which is conveniently situated within the Exhibit Corridor.
The tutorial facet of DesignCon will tackle even better focus with boot camps protecting core business ideas, and three-hour tutorial periods the place well timed matters are coated in depth. A number of the tutorial ubjects coated embody quantum computing {hardware} design, design and verification for high-speed I/Os, machine studying for embedded builders, and PCB design strategies.
Drive World
This 12 months’s DesignCon will as soon as once more embody Drive World, which can present further convention content material within the rising areas of automotive electronics and intelligence. Session matters deal with safety and security, sensing applied sciences, autonomous and ADAS applied sciences, and connectivity and infotainment. For extra on the periods, go right here.
Keynotes
As with earlier DesignCon exhibits, there will likely be a number of attention-grabbing keynote periods coping with sizzling matters in electronics. This 12 months’s keynote session lineup is as follows:
─On Tuesday, January 31 from 11:45 am to 12:30 pm Pacific time, Aydin Aysu, Assistant Professor and Head of the {Hardware} Cybersecurity Analysis Lab (HECTOR) at Electrical & Laptop Engineering Division of North Carolina College, will ship the primary keynote, titled “Submit-Quantum Cryptography: The Subsequent Decade of Cryptographic {Hardware} Design.” Extra particulars will be discovered right here.
–On Wednesday, February 1, from 10:00 to 11:00 am Pacific time, Devin Billings, Affiliate Director of Electrical Analysis and Growth at Boston Dynamics, will ship the second keynote, titled “Enabling Autonomous Robotics By way of Electrical Engineering.” The speak will talk about {the electrical} engineering advances which are enabling the event of autonomous robots, giving them mobility, dexterity, and agility on a scale not thought potential a couple of years in the past. Extra on Boston Dynamics right here.
-On Thursday, February 2, from 10:00 to 11:00 am Pacific time, Ben Gu, Vice President Analysis and Growth, Multiphysics System Evaluation Enterprise Unit at Cadence Design Methods, will ship the third keynote titled, “The Intelligence to Design Clever Machines.” This session will deal with the function of synthetic intelligence within the design of electronics programs requiring superior semiconductors and course of nodes. Particulars will be discovered right here.
Displays
Over 100 exhibitors will occupy the halls of the Santa Clara Conference Heart, displaying the most recent merchandise and applied sciences in areas resembling interconnects, digital elements, supplies, check tools, batteries and energy sources, design instruments and providers, microprocessors and microcontrollers, energy electronics, semiconductors, thermal administration, and extra. A listing of exhibitors will be discovered right here.
