The printed circuit board (PCB) industry is experiencing a surge in demand and prices, driven by the need for high-performance components for AI servers. Raw material costs are rising, leading to increased PCB prices, particularly for high-frequency and high-speed products used in AI computing. In response to this tight supply, leading domestic PCB manufacturers are expanding production capacity, with significant investments focused on AI servers, high-frequency/high-speed boards, and packaging substrates.
