The Pan Pacific Microelectronics Symposium & Tabletop Exhibition promotes international technical interchange and provides a premier forum for networking among microelectronics professionals and business leaders throughout the world.


A Message From 2009 General Chair, Yutaka Tsukada, Ph.D.
On behalf of the organizing committee, it is my pleasure to invite you to 14th Pan Pacific Microelectronics Symposium which will be held on February 10-12, 2009 on the Big Island of Hawaii.

The Pan Pacific Microelectronics Symposium is the place where technical professionals and business leaders get together from all countries along the Pacific Rim: Australia, China, India, Japan, Korea, North America, Southeast Asia, Taiwan, and also including Europe. It is a good opportunity to present your discoveries, achievements, and lessons learned in the past year and to have discussions with professional colleagues about what is going on in the world today and what is going to be in the future.

Symposium topics cover packaging, interconnection, assembly, microsystems, nanotechnology, and solar electronics as well as business and markets, which are important areas to handle technologies since no technology can achieve a victory without a successful foundation of infrastructure.

Today, electronics applications are widely spread and emerging in every detail of human life, from everyday appliances to space shuttles.

In contrast, the division between the depth in science and man-machine interface is getting smaller in each application. In addition, environmental consideration is crucial in every segment of technology. In our industry, the playground is very wide and deep. Therefore, I believe it is very important to join professional group meetings such as the Pan Pacific Microelectronics Symposium to unite everyone's energy in the direction of finding the best solutions for our future.

Along with the technical sessions, you can meet old friends and make new ones. Taking your time in a relaxed environment yet concentrating on the subject and keeping your brain free from daily stress will surely cultivate new ideas and refresh future scope in your business. As General Chair, I hope and recommend to those who find value in the symposium to submit a paper and join with your colleagues who feel the same.

Lastly, I appreciate all the organizations from the Pacific Rim countries who have given a strong support to this Symposium.
