TSensors Summits (
www.TSensorsSummit.org) are being organized as forums for the world’s sensor visionaries to present their views on which sensor applications (TApps), sensor types and sensor manufacturing platforms have the potential to fuel sensor market growth to the trillions within a decade. Such forecasted explosion will be a continuation of consumer sensor growth from 10 million units in 2007 (iPhone introduction) to almost 10 billion devices in 2013.
TSensors visions from TSensors Summits are being processed by a group of volunteers to develop TSensors Roadmap, which will provide recommendations for sensor technology platforms best supporting emerging sensor types. The follow-up phase will focus on financing accelerated development.
ESREF 2014, the “25th EUROPEAN SYMPOSIUM ON RELIABILITY OF ELECTRON DEVICES, FAILURE PHYSICS AND ANALYSIS“ will be held as a 3-day event between
September 30 and October 2, 2014 at the Technische Universität Berlin.
One day will be dedicated to
3D and
CPI (chip package interaction) related reliability and failure issues. The deadline for abstract submission is extended to
March 25.
