FREE to attend including lunch and refreshments, with exclusive access to the private F1 collection of over 30 legandary cars, and of course the following agenda:
AM – Morning Plenary Session –
Will comprise of short technical presentations given by key speakers from the following manufacturers:-
Bright Ideas in LED Driving:
LEDs need to be protected from electrical transients, short circuits and high temperatures. Historically, this level of protection had to be added externally. This presentation discusses advancements in process and technology that means these protection features can be included in LED driver ICs. Tony Armstrong – Director
Linear Technology Corporation.
PCB technologies for LED & Photovoltaic Applications:
This presentation will give details of the techniques and technologies available for the thermal management of LED and Photovoltaic applications. Les Round – Technical Sales Director
Spirit Circuits.
OSRAM, and Further speakers and topics to be confirmed.
Lunchtime Special Bonus Feature – Exclusive access to the Williams F1 Collection with over 30 iconic race cars including those of legendary drivers such as Nigel Mansell and Ayrton Senna. Also included is the opportunity to demonstrate your driving skills on a full size chassis F1 simulator.
PM – Afternoon Workshops
