In the recent years power PBCs became more and more important for medium power electronics systems. Standard PCBs which are used for microelectronics applications are limited mainly by current, voltage and cooling requirements.

The workshop on “Integrated Power Boards” aims for presenting the state-of-the-art in areas like integration of functions, design, thermal management, manufacturing, and CAD tools. Companies and Universities will demonstrate their technologies by applications (case studies).

In a special panel discussion limitations of integration will be discussed: Experts will make just a few statements to stimulate discussions with the audience. At the end of the workshop the attendees should have a much better understanding about the performances and limitations ofintegrated power boards.

The workshop is chaired by:
Prof. J.A. Ferreira (Delft University of Technology), Dr. J. Popovic-Gerber (Delft University of
Technology) and Prof. E. Wolfgang (ECPE).

All presentations and discussions will be in English.

There will be a table top exhibition in the frame of the workshop.
