PCB PrintedCircuitBoard shorthand, namely Chinese name called (line) road be printed circuit board, also known as electric (line) road plate printing. PCB assembly of electronic components with substrate, is scheduled on ge substrate design form the point of connection between printing plate and printing device, its main function is to make all kinds of electronic components forming order circuit connection and ACTS as relay transmission, the provider of the electrical connection in the electronic components, is regarded as the "mother of the electronic products. PCB was born in 1936; In 1943, the United States, the extensive use of the technology in the military radio. In 1948, the United States formally recognised the invention used for commercial purposes. Since the mid - 1950 - s, printed circuit board technology began to be widely used.
1, industry scale
In recent years, with the sustainable development of the downstream industry, has been a steady rise in the global PCB industry; But affected by the global financial crisis in 2009, the world, including PCB, electronic subdivision industry output value to some extent to fall back. , according to Prismark global PCB industry output value in 2009 was $41.2 billion, compared with last year by 14.76%, reaching the maximum annual decline after 2001. In 2010, as the global macroeconomic overall positive, PCB industries a full recovery, back on the track, annual output value of $51 billion, a 23.79% rise sharply in 2009. Prismark predicted that during the period of 2011 to 2015, global PCB will remain stable at a rate of 6.5% growth, the overall size of the global PCB industry in 2015 would is expected to reach $69.8 billion. Over the past decade, global PCB shipments increased rapidly, at the same time, along with the advance of production technology and technical level, PCB sales prices declined obviously. From 2000 to 2009, the area of PCB delivery grown from 194 million square meters to 194 million square meters, up 34%. PCB sales during this period the average price from $211 per square metre high fell to $156 per square metre, fell by 26.1%.

Prismark is bullish on the future of PCB industry development, the main reason for the PCB as important electronic components, will realize the coordinated development of with the electronic market. Industry growth since the 1990 s, nearly 20 years of PCB industry had two large fluctuations, industry into the trough, in 2009 began in 2010 the global PCB industry will once again into a new economic cycle.
From the development of all kinds of printed circuit board products, ordinary single panel and double panel in the life cycle of mature period, due to the development of the PCB production process and the product cost and other factors, single and double panel market demand will continue to maintain stability in a quite long period in the future. Ordinary sandwich plate gradually mature stage, as the electronic product performance enhancement, market demand will continue to increase; High frequency board, HDI board is in rapid growth, such as product technology gradually mature, the market demand will be significantly increased; Aluminum plate, pv, chip packaging board, and other products is still in the market period, larger development space in the future.
