In a recent report, IDC revealed the transformative role of generative AI (GenAI) within IT operations (ITOps) across the Asia Pacific region. IDC's 2023 Future Enterprise Resiliency and Spending (FERS) Survey, Wave 6, highlights that almost half (43%) of organizations surveyed are currently exploring potential GenAI use-cases, with 55% of financial organizations and telecom firms investing in GenAI technology in 2023.
One aspect of the electronic supply chain that is unchanging is the effect emerging technologies have on the ebb and flow of the market. As technologies cycle in and evolve, they play a significant role in demand, supply, price, lead times, and manufacturing operations.
When it comes to Field-Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs), the market often thinks of Xilinx under AMD, the PSG division under Intel, and Lattice Semiconductor as the major providers. However, in recent years, Chinese companies have started to emerge, gradually gaining ground in the FPGA field.

SK hynix Inc. announced today that it has started commercialization of the LPDDR5T (Low Power Double Data Rate 5 Turbo)*, the world's fastest DRAM for mobile with 9.6Gbps speed.
IoT applications are expanding in scope now that the technology has matured. Industrial computers that form a key part of the IoT network architecture must also continue to evolve in response to workflows and operating environments in different scenarios. The Human-Machine Interface (HMI) that serves as the bridge between users and devices requires high stability, high compatibility, and high tolerance. These attributes are essential to fulfilling system introduction goals such as improved performance and reduced costs. Industry veteran ADLINK supplies total solutions for HMI. In response to market demands, rugged display panels from AUO Display Plus have now been adopted to supply customers with HMI products that combine quality and reliability.
Looking at the overall condition of the Printed Circuit Board (PCB) market in 2023, efforts to reallocate and adjust the electronics supply chain are palpable amidst the decline in demand for consumer electronic products and the economic impact of high inflation. However, these endeavors seem powerless in reversing the domino effect created by the risks in a recessionary environment. Even though the economy has been relatively conservative, several trends reveal some optimistic news from an analytical standpoint. First, the industry is excited over the robust demand capacity for IC substrates, strongly reflecting the long-term need for advanced IC substrates brought about by Beyond fifth-generation (B5G), Artificial Intelligence (AI), High-Performance Computing (HPC), and ADAS automotive chips. These potentially high-growth segments can be seen as new blue oceans for Taiwan's PCB industry.
