Ngenxa yezici ezifana nomthamo ogcwele kanye nokushoda kwezinto zokusetshenziswa, umphakeli wamanje wechip wokuphatha amandla usethe idethi yokulethwa ende. Isikhathi sokulethwa kwama-chips we-elekthronikhi sabathengi sinwetshiwe safinyelela ku-12 kuya kumaviki angama-26; isikhathi sokulethwa kwama-chips ezimoto side esingamaviki angama-40 kuye kwangama-52. Amamodeli akhiqizwe ngokukhethekile aze ayeka nokuthatha ama-oda.

Isidingo samashiphu okuphatha amandla siqhubekile nokuba namandla kwikota yesine, futhi umthamo wokukhiqiza usuwonke usashoda. Njengoba imboni ye-IDM ihamba phambili, intengo yama-chips okuphatha amandla izohlala isezingeni eliphezulu. Nakuba kusekhona okuguquguqukayo kulolu bhubhane futhi kunzima ukukhulisa umthamo wokukhiqiza wama-wafers angama-intshi angu-8 ngokuphawulekayo, isitshalo esisha se-TI i-RFAB2 sizokhiqizwa ngobuningi engxenyeni yesibili yonyaka ka-2022. Ngaphezu kwalokho, imboni yabasunguli ihlela ukukhiqiza ama-wafer angama-intshi angu-8. I-chip yokuphatha amandla ithuthukela kuma-intshi angu-12, futhi ithuba lokunciphisa ngokulingene umthamo onganele we-chip yokuphatha amandla liphezulu.

Ngokombono we-global supply chain, amandla amanje okukhiqiza i-chip yokuphatha amandla alawulwa ikakhulukazi abakhiqizi be-IDM, okuhlanganisa i-TI (i-Texas Instruments), i-Infineon, i-ADI, i-ST, i-NXP, i-ON Semiconductor, i-Renesas, i-Microchip, i-ROHM (I-Maxim itholwe yi-ADI , Ingxoxo yatholwa nguRenesas); Izinkampani zokuklama ze-IC ezifana ne-Qualcomm, i-MediaTek, njll nazo zithole ingxenye yamandla okukhiqiza ezandleni zemboni ye-Foundry, phakathi kwayo i-TI inesikhundla esihamba phambili, futhi izinkampani ezibalwe ngenhla zenza ngaphezu kwama-80% emakethe.
