Technical Presentation:

We will be exploring a software program that automates the creation of solder patterns for the assembly process, interfaces to 25 CAD tools and produces realistic high quality 3D STEP models.  Many contract assembly shops need a solution for poor quality solder patterns from their customers. A software demonstration will show how the calculator creates IPC compliant solder patterns that have been proven to work.

Speaker Bio:

Tom Hausherr is celebrating his 50th year in the PCB design industry. Starting as a PCB hand taper from 1974 to 1981 and CAD PCB design from 1982 through today. Tom joined the IPC 1-13 Land Pattern Committee in 1999. Tom met Jeff Mellquist at Wind River and developed the first IPC Land Pattern calculator called LandCalc using an Excel spreadsheet. In 2003 Tom and Jeff collaborated with IPC to create the first software land pattern calculator called LP Wizard. PCB Libraries, Inc. started offering LP Wizard to the global PCB design industry from 2004 to 2009 when Mentor Graphics acquired PCB Libraries. Tom and Jeff worked for Mentor Graphics for 2 years. In 2011 Tom and Jeff agreed to write an advanced software tool called Library Expert which was released in 2012 and started PCB Libraries, Inc. again. Tom and Jeff introduced Library Expert at the Del Mar Electronics Show in May 2012. In 2019 Tom and Jeff collaborated on an even better version of the IPC calculator called Footprint Expert which was released in 2021. In 2023 the IPC-7352 mathematical model and pad stack naming convention was added to Footprint Expert and that brings us up to date.

Attendees must be 18+ years of age, unless pre-approved.
