High-density interconnect (HDI) refers to a printed circuit board (PCB) designed to accommodate a greater number of components within the same board space, effectively minimizing the PCB's size while enhancing its functionality and incorporating additional features.
The primary types of high-density interconnect include single panels, double panels, and other variations. Single panels represent a PCB construction where all electronic components and circuitry are situated on a single layer of the board. This configuration is utilized when individual board sizes are substantial, commonly seen in assemblies of low-volume boards. Single panels can be crafted from rigid, flexible, and rigid-flex substrates, catering to diverse applications across industries such as automotive, consumer electronics, telecommunications, medical, and others.
Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report's Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.
Tariffs have influenced the HDI market by raising costs for imported copper foils, laminates, specialty chemicals, and fabrication equipment essential for multilayer PCB production. Electronics, automotive, telecommunications, and medical device sectors across Asia-Pacific, North America, and Europe face increased production expenses and extended lead times. Nonetheless, tariffs are encouraging domestic PCB manufacturing capacity, promoting localized sourcing of advanced substrates, and supporting innovation in cost-optimized HDI board designs that enhance long-term industry resilience.

The high density interconnect market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $28.82 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.3%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing demand for high-density circuit designs, expansion of 5g and advanced telecom networks, growth in electric vehicle electronics, development of compact high-speed pcbs, rising adoption of rigid-flex and multi-layer interconnects. Major trends in the forecast period include adoption of intelligent hdi manufacturing processes, expansion of IoT-integrated pcb platforms, development of high-density digital interconnect solutions, advancement of electrification-ready miniaturized boards, integration of robotics-driven pcb assembly.
The increasing application of the automotive industry is expected to drive the growth of the high-density interconnect (HDI) market in the coming years. The automotive industry encompasses a wide range of organizations involved in the design, development, manufacturing, marketing, sale, and maintenance of motor vehicles. HDI technology offers numerous advantages for the automotive sector, including enhanced performance, improved reliability, better signal transfer, miniaturized components, and cost efficiencies. For instance, in March 2025, the European Commission, the executive body of the European Union, reported growth in new passenger vehicle registrations, with battery electric vehicle (BEV) sales increasing by 27.7% and accounting for over 13% of total sales for the year. The Commission plans to strengthen autonomous vehicle regulations and, in collaboration with private partners, invest approximately USD 1.16 billion (€1 billion) by 2027. Therefore, the expanding automotive sector is driving the HDI market.
Major companies in the HDI market are expanding manufacturing capacities and introducing advanced HDI technologies to meet the growing demand for compact, high-performance electronic systems. HDI printed circuit boards are specialized PCBs that feature finer lines, microvias, and high layer densities, enabling faster signal transmission, improved reliability, and miniaturized electronic designs. For example, in February 2025, TTM Technologies Inc., a US-based leading PCB manufacturer, announced the expansion of its Ultra-HDI PCB production facility in Syracuse, New York. The facility enhances TTM's capability to produce next-generation Ultra-HDI boards for applications such as 5G infrastructure, artificial intelligence hardware, and advanced automotive electronics. The expansion incorporates state-of-the-art laser drilling, sequential lamination, and imaging technologies, allowing production of circuit boards with extremely fine feature sizes and improved electrical performance. This development strengthens TTM's market position and supports the growing global demand for smaller, faster, and more efficient electronic devices.
