Why There is a Global Programmable Device Shortage
When everything “closed,” Automakers canceled orders for parts and components that Automotive OEMs provide; this caused a cascade of cancellations that eventually made it back to the Semiconductor Manufacturers. While orders for automotive chips were cool, the demand for laptops, game consoles, and other consumer electronics became white-hot. Semiconductor manufacturers shifted production to high-demand inventory, and in many cases were at capacity.
