Double-sided PCB Market: Introduction
- Double-sided PCBs are identical to single-sided PCBs, with two-sided traces, a top and bottom layer. These boards are mounted with conductive copper and components on both sides of the circuit board that allows the traces to cross over each other.
- They consist edge plating for shielding and ground connection; metal core for high thermal conductivity (metal, copper, or aluminum); copper inlay for hotspot cooling; solder resist in green, white, black, blue, grey, brown, etc.; and copper thickness of over 140μm, which makes them suitable for all surfaces that are commonly used in the printed circuit board industry
- These features make the double-sided PCB most significant for rear lights LED, central electric unit back/front, and sensors, which is expected to contribute to the market expansion
Growing Adoption from Automotive and Electronics & Semiconductor Industries
- Based on end-use industry, the global double-sided PCB market is segmented into aerospace & defense, automotive, consumer electronics, IT & telecommunication, electronics & semiconductor, and others (healthcare, energy & utility, industrial, etc.)
- Automotive and electronics & semiconductor are expected to be the fastest-growing end-use industries for the double-sided PCB during the forecast period due to the increasing use of double-sided PCB in sensors, air-conditioning units, switches, ABS, airbag, rear lights LED, and central electric unit back/front
- Double-sided PCBs are also increasingly incorporated in analog devices, such as inductors, drives, amplifiers, power converters, and LED lighting; PC peripherals; and industry & power supplies
- Growing adoption of double-sided PCB for power monitoring tools, power conversion tools, and industrial control tools is further propelling the market
Asia Pacific to Lead the Double-sided PCB Market
- In terms of region, the global double-sided PCB market is divided into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Middle East & Africa, and South America
- Asia Pacific is expected to hold the largest share of the global double-sided PCB market throughout the forecast period due to increasing demand from the electronics & semiconductor, automotive, and consumer electronics industries
- Double-sided PCBs are widely utilized in semiconductor and electronic devices to support fine line & narrow pitch chip scale package (CSP), mounting and combining the high density interconnect (HDI) and high layer count (HLC) technology
- Rise in digitalization; the proliferation of internet of things (IoT); growing investments in advanced factory automation solutions; and innovations in sensor technology, wearable devices, high-end servers, and 5G networking are some other prominent factors stimulating the double-sided PCB market in Asia Pacific
- The market in North America and Europe is expected to expand at a significant rate during the forecast period due to growing demand for double-sided PCB from a wide range of industries such as automotive, consumer electronics, electronics & semiconductor, and IT & telecommunication. Moreover, the market is anticipated to be driven by leading countries such as the U.S., Canada, Germany, France, and Italy. The market in Middle East & Africa and South America is anticipated to register a steady growth rate during the forecast period.
