Samsung Electro-Mechanics Plans FC-BGA Capacity Expansion

Samsung Electro-Mechanics CEO Chang Duck-hyun said at CES 2026 that demand for FC-BGA substrates and MLCCs will rise sharply with AI, and the company will run FC-BGA lines at full capacity in the second half of 2026 while reviewing capacity expansion. He estimated AI data centers could account for 60-70% of FC-BGA demand and outlined moves into camera-module production, humanoid-robot components and all-solid-state batteries.
