What is PCB (Printed Circuit Board)?

Printed Circuit Board (PCB) refers to the non-conductive and copper laminated board that is designed to connect components without the use of wires. It is manufactured through various materials, such as epoxy and fiberglass, that reduce the complexity of the overall circuit design. It is widely available as rigid 1-2 sided, standard multilayer, flexible circuits, high-density interconnect (HDI), microvia or build-up, and rigid flex. It is flat and rigid with flexible substrates that allow boards to fit in convoluted spaces. As a result, it is employed in the automotive, electronics, medical, aerospace, and military and defense industries across India.  

COVID-19 Impact:

The COVID-19 pandemic outbreak caused a severe problem for the PCB (Printed Circuit Board) industry and imposed unprecedented challenges. The implementation of social distancing and lockdown measures forced manufacturing companies to downscale the production process or temporarily pause output. In addition, the pandemic impacted the logistics and transportation sector due to cross-border restrictions. It reduced the supply of raw materials and finished PCB equipment in a short period of time. Besides this, the shortage of manpower at ports to unload ships and conduct a variety of trade processes, such as physical inspections, testing, and certification, hampered the market growth. Many players in this industry faced huge losses and various innovative plans or projects were postponed or canceled due to the widespread of the virus. However, the PCB industry players resumed their operations as the cases of coronavirus reduced, which is expected to boost the market growth.
