Warwick, UK: The new “iPower” technical conference on power engineering will bring together specialists from science, academia, supply, and industry at The University of Warwick on 30 November and 1 December 2011. The conference, organised by the International Microelectronics And Packaging Society’s UK chapter (IMAPS-UK) and the National Microelectronics Institute (NMI), will join with the University of Warwick’s Electronics, Power and Microsystems Research Group.
The programme aims to provide insight into the field’s latest developments and technologies, including applications, trends and devices, thermal management and efficiency, device fabrication, packaging, test and reliability, assembly materials and technologies, high reliability, and temperature.
