ABI Electronics Ltd is a leading supplier of test and measurement equipment as well as a renowned contract electronics manufacturer. ABI products are designed and manufactured at its premises in the UK and exported all over the world thanks to an active distribution network throughout Europe, Africa, the Americas, Asia and Australia. ABI also supplies local customers in the UK and Ireland. With manufacturing capabilities suitable for prototypes and small to medium PCB batches, ABI gained a strong reputation for the complete range of services they offer to cover all aspects of contract electronics manufacturing. ABI was founded in 1983 and incorporated in 1984 as a limited company. The initial concept for the business came from a simple incident when ABI's founder (and current owner) accidentally stepped on an electronics IC which had fallen to the floor. After picking it up, a question came to his head: "I wonder if it still works ?". The company produced the ICT-24, the world's first low-cost digital IC tester, and expanded rapidly as sales of this popular product grew.
