Title: Large Area Electronics – Scaling up to volume manufacture
Abstract:
Technologies for Large Area and Printable Electronics are well established and are steadily moving along the Technology Readiness Level scale. It is apparent that most electronic systems which make use of these technologies will be hybrids of conventional solid-state components and a range of the newer technologies. The next stages for the evolution of printable and LAE include its integration as part of the electronic and system engineer’s toolbox. In this talk, CPI will briefly review the progress made in the design, prototyping and production of a 10000-part pilot production run for a fully integrated smart label using NFC technology
