Market Share of Global Substrate Industry
The global substrate market is highly fragmented. Manufacturers globally have depended on designs, such as high-density interconnect (HDI) PCBs, to place more hardware in limited space. HDI PCBs use high-performance and coreless construction. Compared to traditional PCBs, they sport more densely packed wiring, miniaturized laser vias, capture pads, and other features. The industry's established players are leveraging their manufacturing capabilities and research and development capabilities to drive innovation and sustain their competitive position in the market.
- In October 2022, the manufacturer of Powerelements for PCB contacting, Würth Elektronik ICS, launched a new generation of its tried-and-true lead-free high-current contacts: the second PowerPlus generation, LF PowerPlus 2.0, has the same torque and current-carrying capacity as the first generation but is now even easier to process and more effective to assemble. Würth Elektronik ICS provides reliable and effective high-current contacts for PCB contact in press-fit technology applications with the LF PowerPlus product family. They are perfect for fastening elements or attaching cables and components to the PCB, especially when high torques are needed or there is limited installation space.
- In September 2022, TTM Technologies Inc.'s Radio Frequency & Specialty Components Business Unit, a microwave and RF-based technology specialist, signed a distribution agreement with RFMW, a pure play premier distributor for radio frequency ("RF") and microwave components and semiconductors. TTM will make available through RFMW the entirety of its line of RF&S goods, including its well-known Xinger brand product lineup. Opportunities will be identified and developed, technical sales support will be provided, and distribution will be included in the distribution services. The RFMW online store will also provide the TTM components.
