Taiwan - Unimicron Technology has unseated
Nanya PCB as the world's second-largest PCB supplier, second only to Japan's Ibiden, according to China Economic News Service (CENS).
In the last several years, Unimicron has boosted its
production through acquisitions and capacity expansion, focusing on IC substrates, multi-layer PCBs, small-sized CSP
substrates and flip-chip substrates used by nVIDIA graphic cards, which
have helped the firm rank among the world's top two manufacturers.
Nanya PCB has partnered with Delphi and Sony in China, and will
introduce production of BGA and CSP substrates, with plans to attain a
monthly capacity of 45,000 units, replacing Ibiden for the No. 1
position within the next two years.
