Are you on a quest for the best of test?

Set sail with us to South Carolina’s historic Treasured Coast and drop anchor at Hilton Head Island for the 2009 Teradyne Users Group conference. A treasure trove of knowledge, tools and techniques await attendees and presenters in a variety of technical presentations, tutorials and training sessions developed for different skill levels.

By presenting a paper at TUG, you help attendees navigate through the different levels of test. Meet your peers in test as well as the Teradyne engineers who are always working to solve the mysteries of test. Presenting at TUG provides great visibility for you and your company. Your presentations will be available to all Teradyne customers after TUG via eKnowledge, Teradyne’s technical support portal.
