DSCC Report Projects the End of Flat Panel Display Oversupply and Beginning of LCD Shortage

September 3, 2024

Capacity additions put in place during the pandemic demand boom have resulted in a systematic oversupply in the display industry that continues in 2024, but that oversupply will eventually turn to a shortage. That turn will happen within the 5-year timeframe of our forecast, according to DSCC’s Quarterly FPD Supply/Demand Report, released last week. Although we expect only modest growth in demand for display products, that persistent growth will fill up capacity and will eventually lead to demand for new or expanded LCD fabs.Read More

DSCC Developing a New Report on Glass Substrate Packaging

September 16, 2024

Artificial intelligence (AI) semiconductors are becoming so complex and large that chip makers and packaging suppliers are turning to glass substrates. This trend could be a major boon to display makers, display equipment suppliers and display materials producers. It is also an ideal solution for under-utilized older a-Si TFT LCD fabs which could be converted or sold for this application. Advantages of glass substrates include superior flatness and better thermal and mechanical stability which will allow for higher density and higher performance chip packages to support AI. Glass substrates enable more transistors to be connected in a single package and also enable the ability to assemble larger configurations of chiplets. Organic materials used in packaging will likely reach their limit by 2030 , they consume more energy than glass and also have expansion and warpage limitations. A growing number of panel, equipment and materials suppliers have already announced programs in glass packaging. Intel has said it is targeting glass substrate package solutions in the second half of the decade. BOE has said they intend to start producing glass substrate packages in 2026.Read More
