Embedded Systems Conference San Francisco to be combined with Electronics USA

Munich, Germany - October 30, 2002 - CMP Media LLC today announced a strategic alliance with Messe Muenchen GmbH to produce electronicaUSA with the Embedded Systems Conference San Francisco in 2004. The two events will be united to form one combined event format.

Individual exhibition areas will include:

- Embedded Systems

- Semiconductors
- Cables
- Sensors and Microsystems
- Switches
- Displays
- Passive Components
- Power Supplies
- Enclosures
- EDA Tools
- Testing and Measurement
- Servo Technology

To Microcontroller.com, we are unsure as to the extent that this may or may not dilute the "embedded" content of the Embedded Systems Conference. Clearly, the conference will no longer be focused soley on embedded systems.
