PCB Applications and Industry Demand

With technological advancements and industrial upgrading, the applications of PCBs have become increasingly diverse—expanding from traditional consumer electronics to high-end sectors such as aerospace, medical equipment, and new energy industries.

According to market research, 5G, electric vehicles (EVs), and AIoT (Artificial Intelligence of Things) technologies are the three major driving forces behind the recent growth of the PCB industry.

For example, in the electric vehicle sector, a single car typically contains over a hundred PCBs, including power control boards, battery management systems (BMS), and charging modules. These PCBs must not only withstand high voltage and temperature but also meet stringent requirements for reliability and stability.

As a result, many PCB manufacturers are shifting toward advanced HDI (High-Density Interconnect) and FPC (Flexible Printed Circuit) technologies to meet market demands for compact, lightweight, and high-performance electronic devices.
