Mobo makers facing component shortages
By
Motherboard makers are facing component shortages that may threaten their business during the high season in the second half of the year, industry sources said.
Entry-level core-logic chipsets have long been in serious shortage, and recently supply of printed circuit boards (PCB) has also become tight, sources in the mobo sector said. In addition, a serious power shortage in China has sent top mobo makers rushing to book capacity or place orders in advance with PCB makers whose China plants are likely to be affected. PCB supply has become tight due to precautionary measures, the sources said.
