AI chip boom drives CoWoS expansion, straining raw material supply for ABF and BT substrates, delaying NAND Flash output.
Key Highlights
- The AI chip surge drives rapid expansion of TSMC's CoWoS packaging capacity, boosting high-end ABF substrate demand.
- Both ABF and BT substrates rely on materials like low-CTE cloth, copper clad laminate, and prepreg, causing supply bottlenecks due to overlapping raw material usage.
- BT substrate delays impede the packaging schedule of SSD controllers and storage solutions in smartphones and automotive products, triggering a ripple effect along the NAND Flash supply chain.
- In the short term, vendors should secure inventory and diversify suppliers; mid-term strategies depend on the progress of raw material and substrate capacity expansions and upstream adjustments.
