Transforming a concept to a product is a long journey, especially when it comes in dealing with hardwares. With the emergence of smart devices, manufacturing engineering becomes increasingly critical in the process from Ideation to Prototype to Product. To ensure your innovation can actually be mass produced at a reasonable cost, design for manufacturing concepts should be integrated far upfront.
This Saturday, we invite you to join us to discuss the topic of The Hard Thing About Hardwares. We will have experienced hardware engineers/entrepreneurs to share their knowledges and stories from chip design to mass production.
Speakers:
- Duo Chen: Hardware Engineer
- Yi Zhang: Manufacturing Engineer
- Fan Wu: Hardware Entrepreneur
Agenda:
- Chip Reference Design
- Enclosure Manufacturing
- Mass Production and Quality Control
Time: Saturday, Jan 17 2015, 2pm - 4pm
Location: TIPark Silicon Valley(1601 McCarthy Boulevard, Milipitas, CA 950)35)
Welcome to join in our Wechat group to know your peers.
