Newbury Electronics instrumental in helping Skalene scale the heights of electrical engineering
Martin Horrod , founder , Skalene , a leader in EMC Design & CE certification , recalls ; “ We were attracted to Newbury ’ s online PCB Train service due to its simplicity and the cost benefits of PCB pooling . We ’ ve utilised their kitting and assembly service which , when combined with the free-issue Rs and Cs , delivers real value .
Feasibility studies of innovative technologies require a fast turnaround of prototype PCBs for test and evaluation . One project involved an automated microfluidic sample handling platform for DNA library preparation . “ Newbury were instrumental in allowing us to produce prototypes and tweak designs with rapid turnaround . The platform , based on a modular architecture , consisted of up to 10 PCB ’ s per system of peltier temperature controllers , precision pump and valve controllers and interface and communication PCBs ”.

CAMI Develops Capability of Checking Twist Pair Relationships in Cables as Short as Six Feet
Celebrating its 25th anniversary , CAMI Research Inc . ( Acton , MA ), manufacturer of the CableEye automation-ready cable and harness test system , has developed the capability of checking and measuring twist pair relationships in cables as short as six feet . This feature is now standard in the model M4 low voltage continuity tester , and available as an option for HiPot ( HVX-series ) testers . The same circuitry allows for measuring cable length , length to break , capacitance , and resistance with precision ( 4-wire ). CableEye automatically displays a wiring schematic , netlist , and large PASS / FAIL indicator and , with the help of its signature easy-to-interpret colour-coded graphics , instantly identifies not only when there is a fault , but what type of fault and where .
