Printed Circuit Design magazine is looking for PCB/MCM/PLD engineers
and designers who are interested in submitting articles/papers for
publication in PCD.
To get an idea of the type of articles we generally publish, please
take a moment to look at the 1998 Editorial Calendar reproduced at the
end of this message. If you have already authored articles or papers
(must be non-commercial in nature) that match any of the issue focuses
or articles listed in our calendar, I urge you to submit them to PCD
for consideration.

We're also implementing several new columns and departments in 1998
that require contributions. "Rise Time" will feature advanced design
