Mike Konrad will be presenting “An Argument to Redefine IPC Class Definitions for Class 1, 2, & 3 Electronics - Is it Time for a New Class?”.

Don’t miss this thought-provoking session that challenges the status quo of IPC classifications. Explore why even lower-reliability Class 1 electronics must meet higher standards for cleanliness and durability to function in increasingly harsh environments. This presentation will:

• Highlight real-world failures, including Microsoft’s infamous "Red Ring of Death" and a music industry amplifier’s no-clean process dilemma.

• Discuss the implications of evolving consumer expectations for electronics in challenging conditions.

• Propose solutions, including redefining IPC standards or introducing a new classification, to meet modern reliability demands.

Discover how addressing these challenges head-on can transform manufacturing practices and ensure the success of tomorrow’s electronics.

**Bonus:** Enjoy networking opportunities and the beautiful Hawaiian setting while gaining cutting-edge insights from leading experts in the field.
