It seems the tech industry isn’t out of the woods yet in relation to the global semiconductor shortage, which is expected to continue beyond the end of 2021 and not ease up until it returns to normal levels in the second calendar quarter of 2022.
The global chip shortage started primarily with devices, such as power management, display devices and microcontrollers fabricated on legacy nodes at 8-inch foundry fabs, which have a limited supply, analyst firm Gartner noted.
