Arnold Alderman is president of Anagenesis, Inc., which he founded in 2001. He has been involved in PSMA activities since 1996. During that time, Arnold has been a Board member for 11 years. He has held various offices including Board Chairman in 2004 and 2005. He is currently a member of the Nanotechnology, Semiconductor, Energy Efficiency, and Packaging committees. The many projects in which Arnold has participated include PSiP2PwrSoC Phase I in 2008 , PSiP2PwrSoC Phase II in 2009, Technology Roadmap Workshops 1997, 2003 and 2008, the EPRI/PSMA Workshop "Follow the Power" in 2007, Silicon Integration Product and Technology Report in 2002, the Silicon Integration Workshop also in 2002, and the Power Supply Benchmark Report in 1999. Present projects that he is participating in include the Power Technology Roadmap for 2011. Arnold states, "PSMA is a great organization and over the years I have had the privilege to work with our industry's finest engineers and marketing people. I believe that the work that we have accomplished has been a great help to our industry. Our biggest contribution, by far, has been assuring each year that APEC remains an industry application based conference. I believe that has been a key factor in making APEC the largest and most prestigious power electronics in North America, and perhaps the world - but then I am a little bit biased."His continued vision for PSMA "...is for PSMA to make significant contributions to our members and the industry in general and for PSMA to further develop as a 'voice of the industry' regarding the technical and business challenges that confront us. PSMA is just as exciting, even perhaps more exciting than when I first joined. Presently, I am very much involved in helping our industry understand the important impact that nanotechnology will have on our products in the future. I encourage each of our members to pick a committee that is doing work that you are interested in, roll up your sleeves, and join them. Arnold has 16 years of experience in product and strategic marketing for power semiconductor discrete and hybrid products at Fairchild Semiconductor and International Rectifier. In addition, he had 12 years prior experience in design of commercial power-conversion equipment, from 2 watts to 12 MVA, in a broad variety of applications including ac-dc power supplies, battery chargers, ac motor control, dc motor control, induction heating converters, and electronic ballast. Arnold Alderman holds a B.S.E.E. from Northeastern University in Boston, Massachusetts, and M.B.A. from the University of New Haven, in Connecticut. He holds one patent, and is co-inventor of three others.
