About this event
DesignCon is the high-speed communications and system design conference for chip, board and systems engineers, held in Silicon Valley. Its 15-track technical programme covers signal and power integrity, high-speed link design and machine learning, alongside an expo and the annual Engineer of the Year award. The expo runs 3–4 February.
Who it's for
Genuinely useful for electronics and hardware engineers working on high-speed digital design, signal integrity, chip-to-board-to-system interconnect, and semiconductor test and measurement. Not for software-only, general IT, or business/strategy audiences with no electrical-engineering component.
