In our current environment, where the focus continues to be on military activities and homeland security, extensive work is being done to advance the state-of-the-art in high reliability electronics packaging. This year's technical program consists of over 20 presentations on the latest military, aerospace, space and homeland security electronic devices, systems, and applications, with particular emphasis on design, fabrication, assembly, testing, and materials selection. We are also having a special session on marketing this year which will focus on parts obsolescence issues and US-based resources. In addition to this powerful program, we have a leadoff Keynote Presentation from Mr. Ted Glum of the Office of the Secretary of Defense, Defense Microelectronics Activity. He will be discussing key DoD Microelectronics Technology Initiatives.

The Defense Microelectronics Activity (DMEA) was founded because technological superiority is the essential underpinning of US military strategy. In recognition of the critical importance of technology, the Department of Defense (DoD) took the extraordinary step of creating an organization whose sole mission is to provide leadership and guidance in microelectronics to the warfighter. DMEA has one-of-a-kind technological capability and highly specialized engineering expertise to design, prototype and fabricate new microelectronic components and systems. The tour will encompass DMEA's microelectronics engineering, design, prototyping, testing, processing and foundry capabilities.

The foundry at DMEA is a true flexible foundry capable of producing any quantity, small or large, of microelectronic devices in a variety of semiconductor processes. Foundry process runs are a result of intellectual property licensing agreements with industry to transfer commercial technology to the DoD (DMEA) with multiple semiconductor manufacturers like IMP, Raytheon, Peregrine, and Intersil.

DMEA currently supports the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, Department of Homeland Security, Department of Energy, Department of Transportation, Department of Justice, as well as many defense contractors and international programs from the

United Kingdom

and other allies. The Secretary of Defense declared the highly specialized group of engineers and facilities at DMEA to be a unique national resource.

To sign up, please e-mail Ms. Carolynn Drudik at DMEA, drudik@dmea.osd.mil For Nationals: Please include your name and company. For Foreign Nationals: Please include your name, company, birth date, city, and country information. Also, please bring your passport for identification.
