AI server growth could boost PCB and copper-clad laminate demand more than 200% by 2027, straining global materials supply.

The global excitement surrounding AI has certainly caught my attention for many reasons. However, I was taken aback by an analysis indicating that increasing demand for new infrastructure will significantly boost growth rates for copper-clad laminates (CCL), which are expected to rise by over 200% in 2027, as reported by Goldman Sachs in January.

Reuse templates with confidence.

Complex PCBs change quickly as projects mature. This ongoing change can introduce design errors that lead to costly rework and delays. The Template Area Net Check in Design Force helps teams stay aligned through every revision by catching copper fill net mismatches between schematics and PCB design before they become problems.

Momentum is building as advocacy, investment and policy alignment push US electronics manufacturing into a new growth phase.

There was a time not very long ago when North American electronics manufacturing was in pure survival mode. PCB shops were shuttering. Assembly lines were moving overseas. Critical defense suppliers were hanging on by their fingernails. The story of the American electronics industry was becoming a story of contraction, not growth.
