PCB Market Size to Grow by $29.06B from 2024-2028
May 17, 2024 | PRNewswireEstimated reading time: 1 minute
The global printed circuit board (PCB) market size is estimated to grow by USD 29.06 bn from 2024-2028, according to Technavio. The market is estimated to grow at a CAGR of over 6.6% during the forecast period.
Key Market Trends Fueling Growth
Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs) are essential components in various industries, driving automation and efficiency. They ensure optimum power consumption in high-density applications, contributing to reduced operation costs and improved product quality. PCBs exhibit desirable properties such as dielectric strength, dimensional stability, electrical insulation, mechanical strength, flame retardancy, thermal insulation, and high-temperature performance. The growing adoption of industrial robots, automation machinery, and high-power electrical devices further boosts the PCB market. Additionally, PCBs are vital in electronic equipment, including 5G infrastructure, Internet of Things (IoT), Internet of Vehicles (IoV), artificial intelligence, consumer electronics, and smart devices. The PCB foundation material's reliability and thermal stability are crucial factors in maintaining the performance of these advanced technologies. However, concerns regarding electronic waste, lead, mercury, cadmium, and brominated flame retardants necessitate the development of eco-friendly and sustainable PCB solutions.
Market Challenges
Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs) are essential components in various industries, including semiconductors, automotive, communications, industrial/medical, and telecommunication infrastructure. Made of metal, plastic, ceramic, copper, and epoxy resins, PCBs contain hazardous components that pose environmental risks due to their non-disposability. The industry has shifted from lead solders to lead-free alternatives to reduce toxicity. Recycling PCBs presents challenges such as temperature rise, mechanical shocks, and delamination. Key applications include semiconductor plants, automobile battery control systems, engine timing systems, digital displays, audio systems, power relays, and antilock brake systems. PCBs are also used in smart devices, IoT gadgets, and industrial automation. Materials include fiberglass, glass fabric, and high Tg FR-4, with glass transition temperature crucial for performance. The market encompasses HDI, build-up, microvia, rigid PCBs, and 3D printing.
