5 reasons why the world is running out of chips
5 reasons why the world is running out of chips
Did you know that there is an international chip shortage? Indeed, the world does not have enough chips, and it’s a real problem.
Chips can be found in almost every product you use. They are in your phone, your computer, and your TV and even power the factories that make all of these things. As a result, it is understandable that there will be a high demand for them.
So, why isn’t that demand being met? There are several reasons starting with the COVID-19 pandemic. There are a variety of reasons for this, beginning with the COVID-19 pandemic.
The pandemic increased the demand for electronic products. People were bored at home, so they began ordering a large number of devices, and chip manufacturers were unable to keep up.
Then, there was the fact that the U.S. government placed restrictions on China’s biggest chip manufacturer: Semiconductor Manufacturing International Corporation (SMIC). This trade war prevented SMIC from selling chips to some of the world’s largest corporations.
Finally, there were the unrelenting droughts and fires that plagued the country. Chip manufacturers use large amounts of ultra-pure water to clean their factories and wafers before beginning the chip-making process.
This significantly reduces the ability to produce new chips when there is no water readily available.
So, how are companies dealing with all these shortages? By getting creative, adapting, and growing. Tesla, for instance, rewrote its own vehicle software to support alternative chips.
Will these solutions work? How long will this chip shortage last and what can be done to alleviate it?

oh
Sounds like it was a bad idea to rely solely on a few companies for supplying such a vital product.
Clearly Explained!
A raspberry Pi, a budget PC that costs around 10 dollars, is 10x the price.
☠BLACK BARON☠ 2:43 Maybe it’s time to re-think the word "Consuming". Honestly, consumers don’t need a new computer model or smartphone every year. And so many new cars are standing somewhere, parked without having a driver.
They want y’all to think it’s a shortage ughhh no robots are being built
Ty china.
Haha
And add the scalpers making it worse. What a time it is now that we live in.
Chip shortage is due to a drastic , world wide shortage of high purity sand & quartz which is the key ingredient to make silicon chips.
lmao moore’s law
Governments do the damages by having uneducated leaders running the Country.
No shortage on chips for electric vehicles. Wake the fuck up
India 🇮🇳 can manufacturer better then China 🇨🇳 with " quality ", ethics and skill workers. We can expert less price products from 🇮🇳. several company’s like Dell IBM EY tayota Bosh …ect (around 15000 international companys) are operational in India with out any problem and skilled labor. Even Government promoting new companies with incentives and some times free land allocation. In India for rapid transport 5 DFC are under construction 27 8 line national Hiways are adding in 2022.. Thanks to government😍
I knew T-rump had something to do with this F Up… that guy was a disaster who knows nothing about business.
yooo imamlucid collab?
I have a solution stop making the whole world depended on a couple of factories in China
People are sheep and would buy any shit media sells them. Reminds me a story were chinese buyers/households were focused as "responsible" for cheese price rising around 15-20% in EU back at 2000’s or something when infact milk products are non existant in far east food habits.
And thats how ladies and gentlemen the ongoing financial war against China affects western consumers and tax payers depending on the target at hand ie your pocket (chease) or China sales (m-chips)
Newer bought a new pc or a tv or anything of that sorts, stop wasting your money people you can live without this shit. Fu*k amish still exist for f sake
My cars almost 20 years old my shoes not electronic but they are 3 years old my tv is 10 years old but really all I want is a PS5 it’s so frustrating that I probably won’t get one until 2023 3 years after the dam launch I’ll be 33 by then so stupid
guys just dont buy anything electronic or everything will be realy worse
seems like a Y2K like self created dooms day

The last 2 "reasons" for the chip shortage were not reasons at all. "Reason 4: Real World Consequences" and "Reason 5: The Solution: Adapt and Grow"
So my question is why is there only a very few making chips while I have multiple factories making chips
I am proposing a good solution which is the replacement of silicon by soft diamonds. This link is showing how we produce soft diamonds whuch cost less than silicon https://youtu.be/sqgP-8Wd_A0
US Commerce Dept proved that chip shortage was caused by Taiwanese TSMC. Taiwanese have been bad mouthing S Korean companies to win the US contracts with chip production. Same dirty play by communist China. TSMC was also using Chinese middle man to dry supplies to increase prices.
i think the voiceover is missing some chips
Seems like a good thing
I preordered iPhone 13 Pro and got it on day it was released in Slovakia. No problems with chips. I assume Apple produces own chips, right?
😭😭😭😭
Take global elites out of power and all shortages will end
We need these chip making factories in the USA!!!!! 🇺🇸👍🇺🇸👍🇺🇸👍🇺🇸👍🇺🇸
Work quicker.
Build more square miles. UMM
Employ more quick workers, and machine.
Capt Doug Obvious Genius
basically tech companies were like: AAAAAAAAAA
Everyone who knows there faster than that guy who got the ps5 first at the end “fuck”
So THIS is why I don’t get enough chips at shops
Why dont say just China war trade causing this problem, no need to lie ppl
so you’re telling me, buy a new car now as it might even go up in price due to a car shortage?
Stop producing " planned obsolescence" products!
oh its technology chips not food chips got it
All this tells me is that the West (Europe & NA) need to bring back all production from Asia. The pandemic proves that globalism has failed.
This vid is a winded way to say that all industries using chips, everywhere, are depending on supply controlled by China.
Maybe shortages of regular chips now
Making billions of nano chips to go into the hand or foread
For a new form of ID!
Now, I know why the US sanctioned China. China was stealing chips to mass produce for communists. TSMC has more chips but slow production. Interesting.
After 10 seconds intro for 1st graders I had to stop this video
Deeply analyzing this current situation and taking into account all the different variables in place, I am very concerned about the increase in price of Doritos.
This is a Wikipedia article xd
Ahh, the famous GPUs by Nivea 🙂
Just try to make them from other ingredients beside potatoes.
And now add the wor on Ukraine and lack of neon gas
