Flexible Printed Circuit Boards Market Overview
Flexible printed circuit boards are also known as flexible printed circuits. Consist of a metallic layer of traces, usually copper, bonded to a dielectric layer, usually polyimide thickness of the metal layer can be very thin to very thick, and dielectric thickness can vary from flexible printed circuits that were originally designed as a replacement for traditional wire harnesses. A flexible circuit in its purest form is a vast array of conductors sandwiched between very thin dielectric film layers. The flexible printed circuit boards reduce wiring errors and remove mechanical connectors. These are popular due to their cheaper assembly time and costs, airflow, and system reliability.
The increasing demand for flexible electronics is expected to grow during the forecast period
The increasing demand for flexible electronics, the miniaturization of electronic devices, and growing trends towards Internet of Things (IoT) devices are expected to drive market growth during the forecast period. The growing demand for smartphones, tablets, and wearable gadgets is also fueling the growth of the Flexible Printed Circuit Board Market. Furthermore, the market is being driven by developments in manufacturing methods like roll-to-roll processing, which enables the production of FPCBs at lower costs and bigger volumes. One of the most important major trends in the Flexible Printed Circuit Board Market is the increasing use of FPCBs in automotive applications.
Asia-Pacific is expected to hold a Significant Share of the Flexible Printed Circuit Boards Market over the Forecast Period
The Asia-pacific region dominates the flexible printed circuit board market and held the largest revenue share 70% during the forecast period. Countries such as China, Taiwan, Japan and South Korea are semiconductors and produce almost 80% of PCB production worldwide. The growth can be attributed to the increasing demand for consumer electronics and the growing adoption of FPCBs in the automation industry.
Flexible Printed Circuit Boards Market Segmentation
Based on Type, the flexible printed circuit boards market is segmented into single-sided FPCB, double-sided FPCB, Multilayer FPCB, and Rigid-Flex FPCB. They are widely used used in simple applications where cost is a major concern. The multilayer circuit segment is estimated to expand at a CAGR of 12% over the forecast period.
FPCBs have widespread applications across various industries, the consumer electronics segment is expected to witness considerable expansion, at a CAGR of more than 12% during the forecast period, driven by the budding demand for flexible displays in smartphones, tablets, and PCs.

Connect the Dots: Designing for Reality—Electroless Copper
08/28/2024 | Matt Stevenson -- Column: Connect the DotsRoll up your sleeves because it's time to get messy. In a recent episode of I-Connect007’s On the Line with… podcast, we discussed electroless copper deposition. This process deposits a copper layer into the through-holes and vias of what will eventually be a PCB. Electroless copper deposition feels like a black box to many people. It sort of looks like a black box, too. The boards go in one side, come out the other, and emerge differently. So, let's crack open that black box and look inside.
Maximizing ROI Through Better Wet Process Control
08/20/2024 | I-Connect007 Editorial Team“When things get out of control, the variation in your wet process begins,” says Mike Carano,. “Just because they look like good boards and may even pass electrical test, it does not necessarily mean you have good boards. Once the chemistry is headed toward the right or left side of the process control parameter cliff, the plating is compromised. If the copper is thinner than it should be, when the customer puts it into service, the board may fail after 500 cycles vs. the requisite 1,000 or 2,000 cycles. The root cause issue is that you plated 7/10ths of a mil of copper instead of one-mil of copper because you were not controlling your process. The fact that you passed your own electric test becomes inconsequential.”
The Chemical Connection: Controlling an Alkaline Etch Bath With Low Copper Loading
08/07/2024 | Don Ball -- Column: The Chemical ConnectionThis month, I wanted to continue my discussion on how much process control is actually needed for high-density circuit production. However, in the last month, I have been called on to help with a specific process control problem: how to control an alkaline etch bath when you’re not etching much copper. This problem has been cropping up more frequently as smaller shops (and a few larger ones) concentrate on low-volume, high-value plated through-hole panels such as prototypes, resistor cores, etc.
