Current IssueVoices of the Industry
We take the pulse of the PCB industry by sharing insights from leading fabricators and suppliers in this month's issue. We've gathered their thoughts on the new U.S. administration, spending, the war in Ukraine, and their most pressing needs. It’s an eye-opening and enlightening look behind the curtain.
The Essential Guide to Surface Finishes
We go back to basics this month with a recount of a little history, and look forward to addressing the many challenges that high density, high frequency, adhesion, SI, and corrosion concerns for harsh environments bring to the fore. We compare and contrast surface finishes by type and application, take a hard look at the many iterations of gold plating, and address palladium as a surface finish.
It's Show Time!
In this month’s issue of PCB007 Magazine we reimagine the possibilities featuring stories all about IPC APEX EXPO 2025—covering what to look forward to, and what you don’t want to miss.

Newbury PCBs at Core of Tio Kits
December 14, 2015 | Newbury ElectronicsEstimated reading time: 3 minutes
Tio is a kit to quickly build app-controlled toys and inventions with everyday objects and materials. It is connected hardware that can be attached to almost anything including recycled and craft material, lego, old toys, gadgets and even 3D prints.
The app customises and programs the toys. It controls many features like speed, direction and colours. Key to the experience is the Tio storybook, full of friendly characters who guide children through imaginary worlds and their first creations.
Tio recently won the NACUE’s Varsity Pitch Competition judged by Tata Europe, Microsoft Ventures, YPlan and The Guardian.
Based in Central London, Tio was dreamt up by three aspiring innovators with a vision to inspire tomorrow’s inventors. Kids at heart, they are dedicated to creating a new way of inventing, playing and learning.
