STEVE CARLSON

Steve Carlson has been authorized to take over the formal presentation of three important couses developed by Dave S. Steinberg, well-known author and internationally recognized authority on the mechanical design, analysis, testing and packaging of cost effective sophisticated electronic equipment that must work with a high degree of reliability in harsh thermal, thermal cycling, vibration and shock environments. He has been involved in these areas related to commercial, industrial and military applications for many years. He recently retired from Litton Industries, where he was the manager of the Engineering Department for 15 years.

Mr. Steinberg is a visiting professor at the University of Wisconsin and for the past several years at UCLA where he has been presenting full semester post-graduate courses on similar electronic subjects related to the reliability of electronic equipment.

Mr. Steinberg has worked on many aircraft/missile/space programs, ships' electronic systems, automotive electronics and computers. These include the F-14, F-15, F-16, F-22, cruise missile, AMRAAM, ALCM, TALCM, SLCM, Titan 2 and 3, space shuttle, Mercury, Gemini, Apollo, communications satellites, DD963 destroyers, and the USS Forestall aircraft carrier. Typical companies include Lockheed, IBM, Litton, Intel, GM, Ford, Boeing, Wright Patterson AFB, Northrop, Cisco, Harris, United Aircraft, Hamilton Standard and Motorola, just to name a few.

Mr. Steinberg is the author of seven textbooks related to the packaging of sophisticated electronic equipment for reliable operation in hostile environments. The three most popular books are: Cooling Techniques for Electronic Equip., Vibration Analysis for Electronic Equipment and Preventing Thermal Cycling and Vibr. Failures in Electronic Equipment, published by John Wiley & Sons in New York. He is the author of more than 65 papers published in technical journals on subjects related to the reliability of electronic equipment. He did his undergraduate and his post-graduate work at the Illinois Institute of Technology in Chicago, Illinois, and is a registered Professional Engineer in the states of Michigan, New York and New Jersey. He is an ex Air Force pilot. He is listed in Who's Who Worldwide and in Who's Who in California.
