London, 24 February 2015: TechNavio, the independent tech-focused global research firm, has published a report on the Global Printed Circuit Board (PCB) Market 2015-2019, which is expected to grow at a CAGR of 3.43 percent from 2014-2019.
Advances in High Density Interconnection (HDI) PCB technologies like deep microvia, stacked microvia and sequential build-up technologies, allow PCB manufacturers to place a large number of components on both sides of a PCB. Miniaturization of electronic components is resulting in high circuit density, thus leading to more complex interconnections, which is expected to accelerate the adoption of HDI PCBs in various applications.
“In recent years, electronics manufacturers have shifted their production sites to the APAC region, particularly China, because of low production costs and relatively low labor costs,” says Faisal Ghaus, Vice President of TechNavio.
“China, Japan, South Korea and Taiwan are home to dominant firms manufacturing smartphones, computer peripherals, PCs, tablets and other high-end consumer electronics, which has led many companies to shift their PCB manufacturing facilities to the APAC region.”
