材料汇·2025-08-27 12:52Market Overview - In 2024, the overall packaging market is expected to grow by 16% year-on-year to reach $105.5 billion, with the advanced packaging market growing by 20.6% to $51.3 billion, accounting for nearly 50% of the total [2][14]. - By 2030, the overall packaging market is projected to reach $160.9 billion, with advanced packaging expected to grow to $91.1 billion, resulting in a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10% from 2024 to 2039 [2][14]. - The high-end market share is anticipated to increase from 8% in 2023 to 33% by 2029, driven by the demand from generative AI, edge computing, and intelligent driving ADAS [2][16]. Need for Advanced Packaging - The end of Moore's Law for advanced processes marks the beginning of the packaging Moore's Law, focusing on achieving higher performance at lower costs through system-level packaging techniques [3][30]. - The increasing demand for diverse functionalities leads to more frequent interactions between functional devices, necessitating efficient high-speed interconnections between chips to enhance overall system performance [3][30]. Need for Panel-Level Packaging (PLP) - PLP technology offers higher cost-effectiveness, greater design flexibility, and superior thermal and electrical performance, with significant potential to replace traditional packaging methods [4][42]. - The traditional packaging market is projected to reach $54.2 billion in 2024 and $69.8 billion by 2030, indicating a broad space for PLP to replace existing solutions [4][42]. - The wafer-level packaging market is expected to be $2.1 billion in 2024, with the FO/2.5D organic interposer market at $1.8 billion, potentially reaching $8.4 billion by 2030 [4][42]. Importance of Substrates in High-End Markets - Packaging substrates play a crucial role in signal transmission, heat dissipation, protection, and functional integration, with low-loss transmission being a key property [5][36]. - The increasing I/O density requirements driven by trends in mobile devices, 5G, data centers, and high-performance computing necessitate advancements in substrate technology to meet higher resolution demands [5][36]. COWOP and Substrate-Less Concepts - The Chip on Wafer on PCB (COWOP) concept blurs the definitions between PCB and substrate, focusing on transferring substrate functions to PCB while maintaining compatibility with existing technologies [6][36]. - Current PCB wiring density and I/O density are insufficient to match interposer requirements, necessitating the development of materials that can achieve high-density I/O [6][36]. Related Companies - Key players in the packaging substrate and materials sector include companies like Unimicron, BOE, and Corning, which are diversifying their businesses to capture opportunities in PLP and glass substrate applications [45].
