From the IPC website: The Dieter Bergman IPC Fellowship Award is given to individuals who have fostered a collaborative spirit, made significant contributions to standards development, and have consistently demonstrated a commitment to global standardization efforts and the electronics industry. Each recipient will be eligible to bestow the Dieter Bergman Memorial Scholarship upon the university or college of his/her choice.
Patty Goldman speaks with Continental Automotive’s Peter Tranitz about his IPC involvement with press-fit and other automotive standards which have earned him the coveted Dieter Bergman IPC Fellowship Award.
Patty Goldman: Peter, congratulations on this award. It’s quite an honor as you’re aware, and it means you have done a lot of work with IPC and standards development. Perhaps you can tell us a little bit about yourself and your involvement with IPC and the different committees.
