Between 2006 and 2012 the Market for Printed Circuit Boards for the Automotive Sector is Expected to Double to over $5 Billion by 2012.


DUBLIN, Ireland -- Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c82002) has announced the addition of High Performance Substrates For Automotive Applications 2006-2012 to their offering.

With the increasing electronic content of the average vehicle and the exacting future requirements, substrates are a key component to facilitate increase automotive vehicle functionality. This report reviews the in-vehicle applications driving developments in this market sector and investigates the requirements for a range of advanced and novel substrates from flexible and flex-rigid to multilayer, microvia, thick copper, low loss high performance and ceramic.

The report will provide substrate technology roadmaps The context of product management
The existence of product managers in the product software industry indicates that software is becoming more and more commercialized as a standard product.
 for key applications and forecast of demand for specific PCBs by type and by region. Some of the key issues to be addressed in this report are thermal dissipation, high density interconnect and the bus protocols which enable higher data rates to accommodate the increased functionality. Contributing to this functionality are telematics Originally coined to mean the convergence of telecommunications and information processing, the term later evolved to refer to automation in automobiles. GPS navigation, integrated hands-free cellphones, wireless communications and automatic driving assistance systems all come under the  applications such as satellite navigation, location-based services See mobile positioning. , remote diagnostics Vehicle Diagnostics
Vehicle diagnostics enables a mechanic to diagnose the exact mechanical condition of the vehicle and its systems and components. Remote Diagnostics enables to perform such diagnosis without requiring the vehicle to physically be present for checkup.
, emergency assist, airbag deployment notification, internet access See how to access the Internet. , mobile TV and Bluetooth. Other applications such as passenger comfort and infotainment place demands on interconnect in the cabin as well as under the hood under the hood - [hot-rodder talk] 1. The underlying implementation of a product (hardware, software, or idea). Implies that the implementation is not intuitively obvious from the appearance, but the speaker is about to enable the listener to grok it.  and behind the dashboard.

The plan by North America North America, third largest continent (1990 est. pop. 365,000,000), c.9,400,000 sq mi (24,346,000 sq km), the northern of the two continents of the Western Hemisphere.  and Europe to tag all vehicles for distance tolling and emergency assist will further add to the electronic content of each vehicle. This study presents an up to date current assessment and future forecast of how the key substrate technologies will evolve. The research program involved the author in interviewing substrate suppliers, end users, EMS and ODM (Original Design Manufacturer) A contract manufacturer that uses its own designs and intellectual property (IP). See contract manufacturer.  companies, materials and process equipment developers. In addition to this, BPA BPA British Paediatric Association.  has used its proven and reliable forecasting techniques to predict the future structure and size of this exciting sector.

This report will be of interest to all those who participate or are interested in participating in the automotive supply chain from assemblers This is a list of assemblers. Hundreds of assemblers have been written; some notable examples are:
  • ASEM-51 - for the Intel MCS-51 family of microcontrollers; runs on DOS, Win32, and Linux.
, fabricators and laminate laminate,
