AI substrate shortage eases but equipment becomes bottleneck

Industry reporting from DigiTimes Asia indicates that shortages of IC substrate materials, used heavily in AI hardware, are easing as suppliers expand capacity. However, that expansion is now being held back by limited availability of advanced production equipment, which is becoming the main bottleneck for scaling substrate output to meet AI-driven demand.

Why now: AI demand is straining semiconductor supply chains, so shifts in where the bottlenecks sit matter to chipmakers and investors.
