Due to severe shortage, power semiconductors are currently increasing by an average of 5%-10%

According to the Science and Technology Innovation Board Daily, it was learned from many companies in the supply chain that the power semiconductor industry currently has an average increase of 5%-10%, and some products have increased even more. "There is a serious shortage, and further increases cannot be ruled out. The orders for the first half of 2021 are fully booked, and some orders are even scheduled until the end of next year."

Over the past week, the alarm of 8-inch wafer production capacity shortage continued to echo throughout the industry chain. A series of products including LCD driver chips, power management chips, and CIS chips have been out of stock and have seen price increases. This is particularly evident in areas where demand for products such as IGBTs and fast-charging chips is very strong.
