A Chip off the old Truck... GM to furlough plants for semiconductor shortage
#4
There is a lot in play right now with capacity, IP protection, and raw materials as well. But this is a very broad impact that we've been ramping up mitigation of to keep our own solutions flowing. The biggest impacts are to some of the latest models where advance chipset stocking itself came with a lead-time. Crazy times when normal 18-24 week IC leads turn into as long as 52 weeks - a dang year. A lot of moving parts, pardon the pun.

On the iP matter... there is that with China and what they continue to manufacture in country without legal license... which can not be exported. Big, gray area.
