Kufunika kwa tchipisi, kapena oyendetsa semiconductors, kwawonjezeka panthawi ya mliri wa coronavirus pomwe anthu adatenga zida zamasewera, ma laputopu ndi ma TV kuti athandizire kudutsa. Tsopano, zambiri mwazinthuzi - kuphatikiza ma laptops ena a Chromebook ndi zotonthoza za m'badwo wotsatira monga Xbox Series X ndi PlayStation 5 - zagulitsidwa, kapena kutengera nthawi yayitali yotumizira.

Ichi ndi chimodzi mwazinthu zingapo zomwe zalimbikitsa kufunikira kwa oyendetsa semiconductors, koma popeza magwiridwe antchito akuyesetsa kuti apitilize, ndi kampani yamagalimoto yodalira chip yomwe yakhudzidwa kwambiri.

"Tawona posachedwa, makampani opanga magalimoto asokonekera kwambiri," atero a Bryce Johnstone, director of auto segment marketing ku chip designer Imagination Technologies, adauza CNBC kudzera pa imelo. "Izi zimachokera ku njira yawo yopangira nthawi komanso makina awo ovuta kwambiri."

Okonza ma cararm amagwiritsa ntchito semiconductors pachilichonse kuyambira kuwongolera magetsi ndi masensa osweka, mpaka machitidwe azisangalalo ndi makamera oyimika magalimoto. Magalimoto anzeru amayamba kugwiritsa ntchito tchipisi tambiri.

"Ngati chipangizo chomwe chimayendetsa galimoto ikadina kapena kuyimitsa basi chimachedwa, ndiye galimoto yonseyo," atero a Johnstone.

Galimoto yotsekedwa imabzala
chimphona cha US General Motors yalengeza Lachitatu lapitalo kuti ikutseka malo atatu ndikuchepetsa kupanga gawo lachinayi chifukwa chakuchepa kwa semiconductor. Wopanga magalimoto ku Detroit adati atha kuphonya zolinga zake za 2021 chifukwa.

"Ngakhale titayesetsa kuthana ndi vuto, kuchepa kwa semiconductor kukhudza kupanga kwa GM mu 2021," mneneri wa kampaniyo adati m'mawu ake.

"Kuphatikiza kwa semiconductor kwa makampani opanga magalimoto padziko lonse lapansi kumakhalabe kwamadzimadzi kwambiri," anawonjezera. "Gulu lathu logulitsa katundu likugwira ntchito limodzi ndi malo athu kuti tipeze njira zothetsera ma semiconductor omwe amatigulitsa ndikuchepetsa zovuta ku GM."
