This webinar explains how to use visual inspection alongside a plug-in thermal camera to detect circuit board faults. By spotting heat anomalies, engineers can quickly locate overheating components, shorts, or other issues that may not be visible — streamlining diagnostics and improving repair accuracy.
This webinar, co-hosted by the Global Electronics Association and Anthesis Group, will offer an update on the current state-of-play on emerging circularity policies for electronics to interested stakeholders, from an advocacy, compliance, and standards development perspective.
Turning Supply Chain Security into Business Value: Only Non-IT Personnel Must Achieve It. IPC-1792 Implementation Guide
Join us for a practical, business-first approach to supply chain security. This webinar explores how involving non-IT stakeholders early in the process leads to smarter investments, fewer missteps, and clearer requirements for IT and security teams.
Bring your questions for this expert panel to explore how your organization can mirror these successes and make training a central lever for growth—not just compliance.
Wire bonding remains the dominant chip-interconnection method—and it's not going anywhere soon. This webinar offers a practical overview of modern wire bonding processes, metrology challenges, and emerging materials. Learn about pitch shrinkage demands, direct bonding to Cu on ULK substrates, and innovations like silver and gold-coated palladium copper wires. Explore key bonding techniques including thermosonic, ultrasonic, and thermocompression, plus new options for Cu wire coatings.
Perfect for engineers navigating next-gen packaging and reliability.
Supply Chain Integrity: Protecting Your Business from Counterfeit Electronics - A Non-Technical Guide to Component Authentication
Join SAE G19A subcommittee expert Anthony Bryant for an essential one-hour webinar focused on supply chain integrity and counterfeit electronics prevention. This session is specifically designed for non-technical personnel working in the electronics component supply chain including procurement professionals, supply chain managers, quality assurance staff, and business leaders.
With counterfeit electronics reporting increasing by 25% in 2024 to over 1,055 suspect parts, the threat to supply chain integrity has never been more critical. This webinar will equip attendees with practical knowledge to identify red flags, understand current trends, and implement effective counterfeit mitigation strategies that protect both business operations and end-user safety.
Key Learning Outcomes:
• Understand current counterfeit electronics trends and their business impact
• Learn visual inspection techniques requiring no technical background
• Identify documentation red flags and fraudulent paperwork
• Recognize supplier risk indicators and sourcing vulnerabilities
• Implement practical counterfeit avoidance strategies
• Understand regulatory compliance requirements and industry standards
Target Audience: Procurement professionals, supply chain managers, quality assurance personnel, business leaders, and anyone involved in electronics component sourcing and management.
The world economy is entering a new chapter marked by uneven growth, persistent inflationary pressures, and shifting trade dynamics. The United States shows resilience, Europe continues to face stagnation risks, and Asia’s mix of advanced and emerging markets is driving both opportunity and volatility.
The Global Electronics Association invites you to a timely and informative webinar on the latest U.S. trade and tariff developments and their implications for the electronics industry.
At the midpoint of 2025, the global economy remains caught between resilience and risk. Inflation is elevated but hasn’t spiked as sharply as some feared following the latest round of tariffs, at least not yet. Meanwhile, hopes for aggressive interest rate cuts are fading as the Fed remains cautious, labor market data is softening, and trade tensions remain high as new policies ripple across supply chains.
This webinar, titled "Electronic Essentials: What You Think You Know - and More", is a foundational session aimed at reinforcing the core knowledge that every technician, inspector, assembler, operator, and engineer in electronics manufacturing should possess. These are the essentials of quality and reliability in electronics manufacturing—the things you should know without flipping through an IPC standard. Whether you're new to the field or a seasoned pro, this session is your checklist for baseline competency. Knowing these terms without referencing IPC standards demonstrates professional readiness and process awareness and supports faster troubleshooting, better communication, and supports a better team culture.
