In 5 minutes, know the truth about semiconductor shortage

Semiconductors are the main components used in transistors, LED displays, solar cells, and perhaps more commonly used in microchips. As the demand for microchips in many industries continues to increase, manufacturers are struggling to keep up, and the current delivery time is very long. And the supply of semiconductors is limited. But what prevents manufacturers from meeting this requirement?     Fast-growing markets and new technologies   Although issues related to the pandemic have certainly exacerbated these problems, component shortages started long before quarantines and travel restrictions. Electronic equipment and vehicles require microchips, and therefore semiconductors.   These markets continue to grow exponentially, as many people buy new smartphones every time a new model comes on the market, more and more home devices are compatible with the Internet of Things, and the imminent ICE driving ban prompts consumers to switch to electric vehicles.
