Military Kudos!

 Great endorsement for our PCB repair solution from UK's Defence Dept!

"The introduction of ABI’s BoardMaster and RevEng platforms within Defence Equipment & Support and DECA has fundamentally strengthened our approach to electronic obsolescence management. By enabling structured, component-level diagnostics and reverse engineering in-house, we have recovered high-value assets that would otherwise have been subject to costly redesign due to obsolescence or external repair routes.
The scale of savings achieved across multiple programmes runs into the millions of pounds, but equally important is the preservation of technical knowledge and the protection of operational availability. This partnership has been instrumental in helping us extend platform life, improve sustainment resilience, and deliver measurable value to MoD."
---Matt Darkin, Support Solution Specialist and Military Consultant at UK Ministry of Defence.

Chromebook use ...

 Chromebooks have become the dominant, nearly universal, 1:1 computing device in U.S. K-12 education, driven by their low cost ($200+), durability, and seamless integration with Google Workspace for Education. Nearly 9 in 10 middle/high schools and over 4 in 5 elementary schools use them, serving as primary tools for assignments, testing, and collaboration. Chromebooks hold a 58% market share for school mobile devices, largely due to affordability and ease of management for IT teams. They are designed for cloud-based work, featuring fast booting, long battery life, automatic updates, and strong, built-in security.

While they have transformed classroom access to technology, some schools are struggling with device management, such as maintaining inventory and dealing with repair-related learning gaps. Here's an affordable solution!

Need to generate RF signals?

 @SIGLENT SSG series of RF signal generators have a frequency range of 9 kHz up to 40GHz, offering great performance/value - with up to 0.001 Hz frequency setting resolution, maximum output power to +26 dBm (typ.), Phase Noise: -120 dBc/ Hz @ 1 GHz, 20 kHz offset (typ.), single pulse, double pulse and pulse train generation (option). They provide normal analog modulation such as AM, FM, and PM. They also provide pulse modulation and pulse train generator. In addition, when used with baseband generator such as SDG6000X, they can generate IQ modulated signals. With their high accuracy and pure outputs, the SSG generator series are the right choice for R&D, education, and manufacturing.
