Conference programme goes beyond EMC
Nutwood UK has announced full details of the conference programme that will run alongside the EMC UK 2004 exhibition at Newbury Racecourse on 12th and 13th October
As there have been many changes in legislation, standards, and design techniques, as well as a much broader involvement of government and industry, EMC UK 2004 will encompass not only EMC but related topics such as the Low Voltage Directive, functional safety, WEEE and telecommunications, and the conference programme reflects the complete spectrum of issues that are concerning designers.
