CHANGSU, CHINA -- Gold Circuit Electronics sustained a fire at its plant here, forcing production to stop for an as-yet undetermined period of time.
The disruption could lower the printed circuit board fabricator's revenues by up to 15% this month, the company said.
The affected lines built PCBs for notebook PCs, according to DigiTimes. Gold Circuit supplies an estimated 15% of the world's notebook PCBs, DigiTimes said.
