TAIPEI, TAIWAN – The demand for optoelectronic PCBs is increasing, thanks to China, Europe and the US. Taiwan PCB Techvest (TPT), Dynamic Electronics and Tripod Technology are seeing a rise in orders, reports DigiTimes.
 
TPT’s plants in China and Taiwan are running at full capacity, and March revenues climbed 40% from February. Order visibility has extended to June, and TPT is forecast to see second-quarter revenue up 20% sequentially, according to the company.
 
Dynamic also reports full capacity at its plants in China and Taiwan, with a 90% utilization rate in eastern China. The company expects April revenues to reach over NT$1 billion (US$30.23 million).
 
Tripod predicts the third quarter will see a recovery in the PCB industry, as Europe and North American markets begin to build inventory. Optoelectronic and notebook PCBs have a healthy momentum for growth, according to the company, and demand for HDI boards, HDDs and boards for DRAM modules are showing signs of improvement.
