Server PCB MarketSize and Trends
The Global Server PCB Market size is expected to grow from US$ 45.22 Bn in 2023 to US$ 75.23 Bn by 2030, at a CAGR of 7.5% during the forecast period. The growth of the server PCB market is driven by the increasing demand for servers in data centers, cloud computing, and artificial intelligence (AI).

Server PCB Market Trends
- High-Speed and High-Density Interconnects: Server PCBs were experiencing an increasing demand for high-speed and high-density interconnect solutions to support faster data transfer rates and accommodate the growing number of components in modern servers. High-Density Interconnect (HDI) technology was gaining popularity due to its ability to provide higher routing density and improved signal integrity in a compact form factor. According to the United Nations' ITU agency, in 2022, global IP traffic grew by 26% in 2021 alone and is projected to grow fourfold between 2020 and 2025, primarily driven by bandwidth-intensive distributed applications.
- DDR5 Memory Support: The transition from DDR4 to DDR5 memory modules in servers was gaining momentum. DDR5 memory offers higher data transfer rates and improved power efficiency, but it also requires specialized PCB designs to handle the increased signaling complexity. According to the UN Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific (ESCAP) report, in 2022, data usage in Asia and the Pacific rose by more than 600% between 2015 and 2020 as digitalization accelerated. With the region forecasted to account for 30% of global data center infrastructure by 2023, there will be substantial demand for high-performance servers optimized for memory-intensive workloads.
