PCB Factory: in The Next Three Years, Which PCB Product Will Be More Promising

According to the PCB factory, driven by factors such as intelligence, digitization, and low carbonization, PCB downstream application industries such as communications, automobiles, consumer electronics, servers, and data storage are expected to flourish, and the booming downstream application industries will drive PCB demand. continued growth.

communication

Benefiting from the commercial use of 5G, the base station as a wireless communication infrastructure will be built on a large scale, and the demand for PCBs for communication equipment such as switches, routers, and optical transmission networks used in 5G networks will increase accordingly, and the output value and added value of communication PCBs will be doubled. item promotion. According to Prismark's forecast, the industry output value of the communications industry in 2021 is US$631 billion, and it is expected to reach US$828 billion in 2026, with a compound annual growth rate of 5.58% from 2021 to 2026.

automotive

According to the PCB factory, driven by the three major trends of autonomous driving, digitization and electrification, the value of single-vehicle automotive electronic components will continue to increase. The demand for automotive electronic products such as electric power systems and battery management systems will continue to grow rapidly, driving the rapid growth of related PCB demand. According to Prismark statistics and forecasts, the output value of the global automotive electronics industry will be US$240 billion in 2021 and is expected to reach US$337 billion in 2026, with a compound annual growth rate of 7.0% from 2021 to 2026.

consumer

As smartphones, tablet computers, smart homes, VR/AR and wearable devices have frequently become hot spots in the consumer electronics industry, it has brought opportunities for the development of consumer electronics PCBs. At the same time, the thinning and miniaturization of consumer electronic products also puts forward higher requirements on the performance of PCB products. According to the PCB factory, with the general trend of global consumption upgrading, the consumer electronics industry has broad market prospects. According to Prismark statistics, the global consumer electronics output value in 2021 is 365 billion US dollars, and the consumer electronics output value is expected to reach 423 billion US dollars in 2026, with a compound annual growth rate of about 2.99% from 2021 to 2026.

Server and data storage classes

With the rapid development of global cloud computing, the demand for cloud infrastructure such as servers and data centers continues to expand, and the corresponding PCB usage also increases. Under the overall layout of the country, the trend of computing power infrastructure represented by "East and West" is accelerating. Prismark predicts that the output value of the server and data storage field will reach US$192 billion in 2021, and the output value is expected to reach US$290 billion in 2026, with a compound annual growth rate of 8.6% from 2020 to 2026.
