AI substrate shortage easing, equipment now the bottleneck

Suppliers of IC substrates used in AI hardware are seeing material shortages ease as new capacity comes online, but industry reporting from DigiTimes Asia suggests advanced equipment availability is now the main constraint on further capacity expansion. The shift matters for AI chip supply chains, where substrate capacity has been a limiting factor for accelerators and advanced packaging.
Why now: AI hardware demand keeps straining semiconductor supply chains, and a shift in the bottleneck from materials to equipment affects production outlooks.
