High Value Flex and Flex-Rigid Substrates Market Opportunities 2006-2012
BPA Consulting, April 2007
The purpose of this report is to review in more details those applications which belong to the high-end substrate segment. These will be applications where technology requirements are more demanding such as finer features, high layer counts, thinner materials, applications where military standards for reliability must apply or where a new market is emerging.
This study will present an up to date current assessment and forecast of how the key substrate technologies will evolve. The report will review specific applications driving substrate developments in four key market sectors and illustrate this with substrate technology roadmaps and market forecasts for the key applications. Key applications reviewed include optical sub-assemblies, fine featured flex for medical ultrasound, multilayer flex in missiles, FB-DIMM packaging technology and high-speed flex data interconnects.
The research program involved interviewing substrate suppliers, end users, EMS and ODM companies, materials and process equipment developers. In addition to this, the report authors have used their proven and reliable forecasting techniques to predict the future structure and size of this exciting sector.
This report will be of interest to all those who participate or are interesting in participating in the lower volume, higher value supply chain including assemblers, fabricators and laminate material supplier
