The Huntsville chapter of the IEEE Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) Society invites you to attend a Distinguished Lecturer Meeting on September 19, 2013. The program will begin at 5:30 pm with Gary Ziadeh and Rob Rowe of Amplifier Research, sponsoring a free catered meal. Jay Diepenbrock’s talk will begin at approximately 6:20 pm after some short chapter status updates.

Synopsis:

This presentation deals with the design, manufacturing, and testing of high performance data cables. A number of examples will be described illustrating different types of cables for typical applications. Characteristics of various types of materials, construction considerations, various connectors, and termination techniques will be covered, as well as testing considerations.

Bio:

Joseph C. (Jay) Diepenbrock worked in a number of development areas in IBM including IC, analog and RF circuit, and backplane design.  He then moved to IBM’s Integrated Supply Chain, working on the electrical specification, testing, and modeling of connectors and cables and was IBM’s Subject Matter Expert on high speed cables.  After over 35 years at IBM he left there and joined the Lorom Group as Senior Vice President, High Speed and is leading the Lorom Signal Integrity team and supporting its high speed product development.  Mr. Diepenbrock has authored or co-authored a number of technical papers and contributed to a number of industry standards, is a Senior Member of the IEEE, and holds 12 patents.

The meeting will be held at ADTRAN in the East Tower, Conference Room 273. The directions are included below. (follow the BLUE line on the map on http://www.HuntsvilleEMC.com/).

The meal and presentations are open to anyone interested in EMC: IEEE membership is not required to attend.

Seating is limited to the first 100 people registered. You must Register at https://meetings.vtools.ieee.org/meeting_view/list_meeting/20323 as soon as you can, but no later than 1:00 p.m. CST September 17, 2013.
