Hongban Technology: AI server PCB-related products are currently still in the client product verification stage
Hongban Technology has successfully completed technical verification for its PCB products related to 800G and 1.6T optical modules, with downstream clients including several leading companies in the industry. The company is currently in small-batch production for these optical module PCBs, with shipments arranged according to client project timelines. In parallel, AI server PCB products are still undergoing client verification, with mass production dependent on customer test results and project progression. Separately, TSMC is collaborating with Ibiden and Innolux to validate the feasibility of using glass substrates in CoWoS advanced packaging, marking a significant step towards industrialization, though widespread mass production is still some time away.
