Flexible Board Makers See Potential in Mini LED Backlighting
October 3, 2019 | DigitimesEstimated reading time: Less than a minute
With Apple reportedly looking to incorporate mini LED display technology into its iPad and MacBook product lines between the second half of 2020 and first half of 2021, Taiwan-based flexible PCB makers including Zhen Ding Technology and Flexium Interconnect stand a good chance of entering the supporting supply chain.
Flexium has long been in the supply chain of LED backlight modules for iPad and MacBook models, and will be in a better position to win orders should Apple adopt mini LED backlight modules for new iPads and MacBook.
