The biggest problem with the latest 56 semiconductor manufacturers suspend orders, price increased, and long lead time. How can you fix it?

 Following the suspension of MCU orders by ELAN , Holtek Semiconductor issued a notice on 21st April suspending orders with immediate effect. The price of various semiconductors, especially MCUs, has risen as a result of factors such as the tightness of 8-inch wafer foundries. The demand for MCUs is so high that many major MCU manufacturers at home and abroad are operating at full capacity, but supply still exceeds demand. In its notice, Holtek  Semiconductor stated that Suspension of orders for 2022 Subject: Orders with delivery dates in 2022 are suspended with immediate effect.   Description: 1.
