Top10 of PCB producing countries
Peter Brent - on behalf of Reed Electronics Research - talked a little bit about the global PCB production in 2012 during TEC in Lund.
Coming as no surprise really, the Asia-Pacific region accounts for over 90% of the almost USD 60 billion worth of boards produced in 2012. The meager rest of 10% is divided between the other regions. (see charts below).
When it comes to board types produced, it becomes obvious that well over half (52%) of the production is in multilayers, both in Microvias and Non-Microvias. This is follow by Double-Sided boards (14%) and Flexible Circuits (10%).
