Show Notes

This episode is a little different in two ways.

First, host Mike Konrad recorded it not in his studio but at the SMTA Pan Pacific Strategic Electronics Symposium, affectionately known as PanPac, in beautiful Maui, Hawaii.

Each year, Mike records a Reliability Matters podcast at PanPac. Normally, the format of the show is to ask questions and the guests provide answers. On this episode however, the guests do all the talking.

The theme of this episode is Electronics: Down Memory Lane and a Vision for the Future. The guests on this episode share their view of the history of electronics from three different perspectives:

  • Dr. Ron Lasky, Dartmouth College
  • Dr. John Evans, Auburn University
  • Dr. Tom Duval, Auburn University.

They share their perspectives on the history of the electronics industry in presentation format.

This episode contains three short PowerPoint presentations, which can be viewed in the video version of this podcast: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HlDYgZ6Hv6w
