Professional
Advancement Seminar
on Power Quality
Advanced Practical
Electric Power Design
for Continuous
Process Equipment
Emphasis
this year: Harmonics, process stability, and phase sequence
analysis
¡§This is a practical, hands-on, how-to-solve-the-problem seminar
for practicing electrical engineers,
with
just barely enough theory and math, but lots of real-world examples.¡¨
Who
should attend:
Electrical engineers
who design semiconductor tools and other continuous
process equipment.
Facilities engineers
who are responsible for sensitive manufacturing equipment.
Utility engineers
who are responsible for major commercial/industrial accounts.
(To get the most out of this
Professional Advancement Seminar, you should
already be familiar with electric
power design in process equipment.)
Date and
Locations:
Monday, May 15, 2006
Royal Plaza Hotel, Hong Kong
8/F, 193 Prince Edward Road
West,
Kowloon,
Hong Kong.
(Time: 9:00AM ¡V 12:00AM, 1:30PM ¡V 5:00PM.)

Instructor:
Alex McEachern
is recognized as the principal world-wide authority on electric power
solutions in the semiconductor industry. He has participated in the
design and testing of electric power subsystems of more than 300
semiconductor tools of almost every type. Known for his cheerful,
practical, hands-on approach to even the most complicated technical
problems, McEachern is a Senior Member of the IEEE and has been awarded
29 patents. |
