New Demand Fields Raise Growth Prospects of PCBs

摘要

The demand for printed circuit boards (PCBs) has been recovering. While companies that have been manufacturing PCBs for automobiles and smartphones are experiencing significant business decline, manufacturers that are producing PCBs for data centers, servers and IC packages are experiencing strong business performance.This bipolarization has emerged in the demand for PCBs. Nonetheless, economic activities slowed down by novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic have restarted, and the overall demand for PCBs, including those for automotive electronics, has been picking up month by month since around the summer of 2020.
