WASHINGTON -- The Electronic Industries Alliance's board of directors has approved a plan that would split the assets of the trade goup coalition across five distinct organizations.
Under the plan, EIA will distribute its assets equally among its four current member associations -- The Electronic Components, Assemblies & Materials Association (ECA); the Government Electronics and Information Technology Association (GEIA); the JEDEC Solid State Technology Association (JEDEC); and the Telecommunications Industry Association -- and the Consumer Electronics Association, a former member of EIA.

SUNNYVALE, CA – A new “reverse order” interconnection method describes a way to produce a finished electronics assembly with neither solder nor a circuit board.
The method, tentatively called the “Occam Process,” is a way to build an electronics assembly using mature core processing technologies in a novel sequence. What’s more, says the inventor, the end-product is expected to be more reliable than previous solder-free strategies (e.g., using conductive adhesive as a solder substitute) or traditionally manufactured soldered assemblies.

CHENNAI, INDIA – The EMS Alliance, a group of multinational
electronics manufacturing firms, said the size of India's electronics industry
is currently at $25 billion and thinks it will grow 36% in the next two years.
It also forecasts its member revenues from India to rise to $2 billion, a 39% increase in just two years.
The consortium is planning a major manufacturing base in India to focus on the local electronics market.
According to the government, consumer electronic production for 2006 through 2007 was almost $5 billion, a growth rate of about 10% year-over-year, with CE accounting for 35% of total electronics hardware production.
