by Tyler Durden The global supply chain of a semiconductor chip is complex and spans the globe. For example, a camera image sensor produced by On Semiconductor is first created with wafers in Taiwan for packaging and testing, then to Singapore for storage, then on to China for assembly into a camera unit. The camera unit is sent to a Hyundai component supplier in Korea before being mounted on Hyundai vehicles in auto factories around the world, according to Reuters. A shortage of that image sensor has resulted in Hyundai Motor's plant's idling in South Korea. Other automakers such a Ford Motors Co, General Motors Co, and Volkswagen are experiencing issues.
