Abstract: Semiconductor Tool maintenance is a complex task due to process complexity, process integration challenges, and customer requirements. Historically, maintenance strategies have been reactive due to these complexities. Applied Materials has been focused on moving from a generally reactive method of reacting to tool issues to prescriptive methods of maintaining process equipment. This migration is […]

Rethinking Chip Design to deliver Faster, Smarter, More Compact Solutions [] Abstract: CDimension is rethinking chip design from the ground up, delivering solutions that are faster, smarter, and more compact. We’re moving beyond the limitations of traditional technology. Our foundational innovations in advanced materials and semiconductor integration unlock unprecedented gains in performance, efficiency, and scalability […]

The rapid growth of 3D advanced packaging introduces new challenges in inspection and failure analysis, where complex structures such as microbumps, redistribution layers (RDLs), and through-silicon vias (TSVs) demand reliable non-destructive testing (NDT). Conventional approaches, including Scanning Acoustic Microscopy (SAM) and X-ray imaging, are limited by noise, resolution, and defect visibility, creating barriers for reproducible […]

This virtual meeting can accommodate up to 100 attendees. While military systems in general have to operate in tough electromagnetic environments, missile programs require special attention and considerations from an EMI/EMC perspective. From environments to requirements to best practices, this presentation will discuss key focuses of EMI/EMC engineering in relation to missile programs and systems […]

Building on the tremendous response to Dhanashree Lele’s ACM talk on Multi-Agent Architectures for Enterprise AI, this 2-day, research-caliber, hands-on workshop is designed to advance the state of practice in Agentic AI system design, evaluation, and optimization. This workshop will guide participants through theory-to-deployment workflows for constructing next-generation multi-agent frameworks, benchmarking agentic behaviors, and applying […]

Silicon Valley Engineering Council's annual Open House features networking with refreshments and a Biotech panel discussion, including engineering's role in healthcare futures. The population in the United States and many Western countries is aging. The cost for developing and using healthcare is rising so much that one wonders if it is sustainable. New ways of thinking […]

Hosted via Google Meet - https://meet.google.com/pqw-trcy-xpg The financial industry is entering a new phase of intelligence—one where AI systems are no longer just analytical tools but autonomous collaborators capable of interpreting goals, reasoning over complex data, and taking context-aware actions. This talk explores the emergence of agentic AI systems in finance—AI architectures designed with intent, […]

Millimeter-wave (mmWave) power amplifiers (PAs) are critical building blocks in next-generation radar, satellite, defense, and 6G communication systems, where output power, bandwidth, and efficiency must be achieved under stringent size, weight, and power (SWaP) constraints. Among the enabling technologies, Gallium Arsenide (GaAs) and Gallium Nitride (GaN) continue to dominate due to their complementary strengths in […]

[] This symposium will focus on quantified reliability, accelerated testing and probabilistic assessments of the useful lifetime of electronic, photonic, MEMS and MOEMS materials, assemblies, packages and systems in electronics and photonics packaging. This includes failure modes, mechanisms, testing schemes, accelerated testing, stress levels, and environmental stresses. Visit our website for details, for our Advance […]

The power industry is under pressure to rapidly expand infrastructure to meet growing demands from both consumers and producers. But sticking to traditional design and construction methods may no longer be enough. One of the biggest bottlenecks? Hardware dependencies—like waiting on control wiring or specific components—that delay commissioning and inflate project timelines. This presentation explores […]

[]Trends in consumer goods are leaning towards thinner, more compact products with higher performance than their predecessors. Today’s consumer wants lightweight, portable, battery-operated gear that is powerful enough to satisfy their needs for speed and ease of use. One of the biggest challenges facing product design is thermal management. Case temperature limits for products that […]

[]The rapid rise in power density and complexity of electronic systems has made thermal management a critical challenge for ensuring reliability, performance, and sustainability. Artificial Intelligence (AI) offers transformative opportunities to address this challenge by enabling data-driven modeling, optimization, and predictive control of cooling systems. By integrating AI with experimental and physics-based approaches, adaptive models […]
