Polar Instruments, a specialist provider of tools for PCB design, fabrication and test, welcomes Dorine Gurney as President effective January 2018.
Dorine brings her experience from a career spanning Mentor Graphics, Lattice Semiconductor and most recently with Tektronix. Dorine takes over the reins from Ken Taylor who is retiring from day to day activities, Ken will remain on the board of Polar Instruments Ltd as a non executive director.
“I am excited to welcome Dorine to the Polar team,” said Taylor. “She brings a wealth of experience and a track record as someone who makes things happen. Her background from software engineering through silicon companies, and more recently in RF measurement brings a wealth of new experience into the Polar team.”
Polar is exhibiting at Design Con booth #605, offering an excellent opportunity to meet the Polar team.

We’re in the middle of show season, and it certainly “shows.” Thank you very much. I’m here all week. Don’t forget to tip your wait staff. This week, we published a variety of articles, columns, and news items, and much of it centered on trade shows. Technical Editor Dan Feinberg brings us a report from CES 2023. IPC announced the winners of the Best Technical Paper awards for IPC APEX EXPO 2023. And we have an interview with Altium’s Rea Callender about the company’s educational efforts at APEX and around the globe.

The youngsters are back in school, and we’re all back to work. The water is back on for most of us in Atlanta; when temps dropped down to 8 degrees Fahrenheit, our pipes started bursting left and right. After a Christmas dinner with no water, I have a new appreciation for H2O. It’s been a busy week, and we published a variety of articles, columns, and news items. In this week’s top five, we have news about the market in Southeast Asia, a look at what the CHIPS Act really entails, a deep dive into CMMC, and a peek at how printed electronics developers are using flexible circuit concepts to facilitate PEC. We also say goodbye to a Top Gun PCB designer who left us way too soon.

While it may be traditionally considered a PCB fab and assembly show, IPC APEX EXPO is quickly becoming a destination for PCB designers and design engineers. Flipping through this year’s schedule, I counted 15 Professional Development and Technical Conference classes that focus on PCB design, as well as several fabrication classes that many of you should probably take. I checked in with Carlos Plaza, IPC’s senior director of educational development, to discuss the organization’s drive to present more PCB design curriculum at the upcoming show and how the show can give designers the tools they need to overcome the many challenges currently facing the industry.
