  • Board Test
    Intel, Fort Collins, Colorado USA
    October 25 - 27, 2011

    Following the very successful 9th Board Test Workshop (BTW) held in Fort Collins, the BTW Organizing Committee is organizing the eighth BTW event, which will be hosted in Fort Collins, Colorado. BTW11 will focus on current issues and trends related to board test. Similar to prior Board Test workshops, perspectives are invited from contract manufacturers, test equipment providers, researchers, end users and systems providers.
    BTW11 is sponsored by the IEEE Philadelphia Section, in cooperation with the IEEE Computer Society, the IEEE Centennial Subsection and the Test Technology Technical Council (TTTC) and is supported by the Board Test Technical Activities Committee (BTTAC)
