The manufacturers include UMC, SMIC, and Power Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. on May 24, 2021, 16:43 In brief: Electronics pricing might become even worse than it currently is. A new report suggests that some chip manufacturers have increased their products' pricing by 10% to 30% since the start of Q2 2021. Moreover, the prices of IC products have also been significantly increasing, in some cases by dozens of times. With the start of the second quarter of 2021, over 30 companies, including UMC, SMIC, and PSMC, have reportedly increased their products' prices by 10% to 30% due to rising raw material costs. Although TSMC isn't mentioned in the report, the semiconductor company had already done something similar in January 2021, increasing the wafer pricing and terminating discounts.
