HiDEC will be hosting a PCB design in ORCAD and Allegro before the university resumes for the spring 2025 semester, January 9th & 10th. The upcoming HiDEC PCB design in ORCAD and Allegro Training Camp is our next iteration of providing practical education in Electronics Manufacturing through the knowledgeable staff and facilities at HiDEC. The goal is to introduce attendees to the principles and practice of PCB design, in order to bridge the gap between normal coursework and the actual production of electronic assemblies. Our intent here is to help HiDEC users to be more successful in the long run, as well as better inform to enable better electronics engineering and design.

This is a great opportunity for exposing newer students to the principles and we have specifically chosen these dates to avoid conflicts with the semester and classes, and have also scheduled around new student orientations, etc.  Anyone is welcome to participate!

Registration fees defray the cost of materials and tool time:

-        $250 for students

-        $300 for staff or non-UA attendees

Snacks and Lunch will be provided on 1/9/25. Also, the first 4 registrants will have $50 off the registration fee! Sign up soon by emailing Lauryn Adkins (lhyles@uark.edu) or our HiDEC email (HiDEC@uark.edu).
