MLCC Market Polarizes in 1Q26 as Embodied AI Ignites
Demand for high-end MLCCs remains strong due to substantial investments in AI infrastructure, such as Nvidia''s GB200/300 servers, and
Contact UsHome / High-end materials in AI servers
High-end materials upstream are controlled by Japan, Taiwan, and South Korea. In March 2026, a supply chain move by AI leader NVIDIA sent ripples through the electronics industry. Their next-generation Rubin platform officially initiated supplier testing for M10, a new Copper Clad Laminate (CCL) material. Within this hardware ecosystem, printed circuit boards (PCBs) play a critical role as the structural foundation for electronic components and the provider of electrical. Selecting between M6, M7, and M8 is a balancing act of decibels per inch versus the total bill of materials. They enable high-speed signal transmission, high-power-density power delivery, and. PCB Demands for AI Servers: An Ultimate Challenge of Performance and Density The typical characteristics of AI servers define their core PCB requirements:.
