IPC announced today the March 2022 findings from its North American Printed Circuit Board (PCB) Statistical Program. The book-to-bill ratio stands at 1.05.
Total North American PCB shipments in March 2022 were down 11.7 percent compared to the same month last year. Compared to the preceding month, March shipments rose 5.6 percent.
PCB year-to-date bookings in March were down 25.9 percent compared to last year. Bookings in March fell 1.3 percent from the previous month.
“Stronger shipments suggest marginal improvement in supply chain dynamics but a drop in orders alludes to slowing demand across a number of downstream sectors,” said Shawn DuBravac, IPC’s chief economist.
