在中國正在成為全球最大的PCB生產基地――去年PCB產量占全球市場的25%的同時,臺灣PCB生產商占據了中國PCB產值的40%,并將在3年代將這一比例擴大到50%。 Lai Kuo-en, chairman of South China PCB Friendship Association, made such an estimate at a forum held at Suzhou PCB Show running May 16-18 in China. Last year, China outstripped Japan as the worlds largest manufacturing base of PCB, with an annual production growth of 17.9%, higher than the average posted by the global PCB industry, Lai said. Meanwhile, Chinas PCB industry scored production value of US$12 billion in the year, with 40% of that contributed by Taiwanese manufacturers. Regarded as a basis of industrial development, PCBs have evolved into thin, sophisticated, integrated models, including high density interconnects (HDIs), flexible PCBs, rigid-flex PCBs, and flip-chip substrates. Accordingly, total production value of global PCB manufacturers was estimated at US$45.1 billion last year.
