Nice reference lol. My fav in the Marvel cinematic. But I have to point out that, Tony might be able to build the fusion reactor using scraps, but he cannot build a chip in that cave with a box of scraps, either in reality or comics. I'm not taking about the new sub 10nm node chips, I'm talking about the ones from 30 years ago, even those chips have micron scale patterns, that will need million dollars equipment to turn out. Have a non enhanced person making chips with bare hand is something even Stan Lee couldn't fashion. But I'm sure Tony can make some potato chips just fine in the cave, or corn chips at least.

That chip shortage will be a lot worse, especially for Nvidia and ATI video processor and graphics cards should China decide to annex or invade Taiwan.

Semiconductors are used to make transistors. You dope it with trace amounts of other elements like boron or phosphorus to make p-type and n-type respectively. Then you can make npn or pnp transistors, where the n-type and p-type touch each other, allowing charged particles to move between the different types. For MOSFETs, an insulator is placed on the middle of the junction, and then a conductor, then a voltage is applied to change the charge of the conductor, making it have the same type of charge as the middle part of the junction, repelling similarly charged particles away from the conductor, and allowing charges to flow from one end of the transistor to the other. Then logic gates can be made, then larger circuits, then finite state machines, then you can make a chip that can be programmed or specific to whatever you want to calculate.

Through acquisitions and market pressure, we now have a handful of architectures and a handful of foundries. SPARC, MIPS, PA-RISC and many others were shut down internally.

Patents are a big issue. One of the reason there are no CPUs and GPUs is that the ONLY manufacturer of AIB films had a fire at their factory in 2019. AIB film is the circuit that connects your CPU to the substrate. Chips are so small that they can't be soldered directly to the carrier, so these films are laser cut, coated in copper, etched, stacked and sandwiched between the silicon die and the substrate which has the pins on it. The other problem is that the patents block companies from making these super precise machines that make chips. There is 1 company in the WORLD making EUV machines and only about 5 that make the most modern chips. There are literally a handful of companies making 90% of the most important parts that make humanity possible. Patents, copyrights, and trade sanctions are keeping it that way.

The problem is that semi-conductor is a highly specialized, extremely expensive industry. By now, only two companies are in the latest tech-node (TSMC + Samsung) and Intel has nearly dropped out.

You didn't mention one major reason: Mining. Because of the economics consequences of lockdowns, government print more FIAT money, so more people loose trust in them and buy other assets. This is one of the reasons cryptocurrencies exploded. This also means mining got much more attractive, especially now that there are not much hardware on the market so the total calculation power of the miners don't increase that much, which means mining is very attractive.

He does not answer the question. Let me tell you the reason why there are a poor supply of silicon chips. It is because there is a drastic , world wide shortage of high purity sand & quartz which is the key ingredient to make silicon chips.

Outsourcing is one of the problems related to this especially with rising demand for pure silicon they need to build more manufacturers to keep up with the demand.

The US has no idea how this is going to affect them especially when it comes to trade, the supply chain, raw materials, rare Earth and Sea materials, trade routes, etc... Like with the Pandemic, they don't think it would affect them and they don't care. Wait until China secures all of the countries they are terrorizing and militarizing. Oh, Biden is repairing ties to China. He was also one of those who led the deals so that US businesses, factories and jobs, were and can be easily transferred to China.

Speaking as someone who works in the manufacturing of these chips, it doesn't matter how many factories you have if you don't properly track demand of your product and take action immediately when you see trending or if you refuse to keep a safety cushion of extra stock in your supply chain. The abrupt stop that a lot of companies put in place for Covid caused them to lose their extra inventory which could have been used as a cushion during an upturn. Compound this with the fact that they also didn't start ordering material again until it was too late and you've got a frantic rush to make up a years worth of slack in the supply chain. Chips don't get made overnight and as such can take month(s) to complete from start to finish. It's a harsh reality that a lot of companies now have to learn from after decades of not having to deal with the consequences of this type of business practice.

I was thinking about building a new computer and retire the one I have from 2015. Looks like I was wrong to think it would cost what I thought it would, the total pricetag was about €3000 (US $3600) for a high-performance desktop and I did not even select the most powerful components, with the graphics card being the most expensive and the rarest to see in stock. The chip shortage sure has raised the prices, and personally I might as well wait until the market and prices recover a bit.

Global foundries has a fab in NY Samsung in austin, but i wouldn't be shocked if they leave since the city can't manage rolling blackouts and made them go offline for a day, costing them tens of millions of dollars in lost wafers. But most of their stuff is in korea. NXP, AMD, freescale, TI, uhh that spinoff of AMD, all those guys are pretty much out of chip making at this point. Too high taxes, too long of a wait.

My opinion is that people were quite happy, even grateful for their quality of life well before semiconductors were even invented. Much of what this technology has done is to rob people of their independence. For instance, many people repaired their own automobiles before they started to install computers under the hood. Now they must take their cars to expensive dealer garages. This unneeded technology is even behind the Right To Repair Movement. For instance, John Deere tractors now have computer technology in them and the sales contract makes it illegal for farmers to hack the system in their tractors to enable them to repair their own machines. The same issue of Right To Repair has surfaced with Apple products. Again, chip technology works in favor of making the Rich Richer and the Poor Poorer. Chip technology has also enabled Big Business to invent products for which the consumer had no expressed need until the product was first marketed. For instance, NO One can show me a survey or a news article pre-1990 where consumers demanded cell phones. People were quite happy with land line phone technology until Big Business "created the need" for cell phones. I'm not against "progress" but for whose ultimate benefit is all this "progress" for ? Certainly it isn't for the ultimate benefit of the consumer, who was quite happy, even grateful for his quality of life before chips were even invented. This version of "progress", which has been brainwashed into all of us, is for the ultimate benefit of Big Business, which really ran out of new needed products in the 1960's, and then had to "invent needs" through chip technology just to make more money. Capitalism as we know it accomplished its historical task by the end of WWII and should have been replaced by a more adaptive economic system. Instead, it has languished in the ensuing decades by inventing new technologies which in turn invent products that the consumer was quite happy without and which has ultimately led to even more consumer debt and even "debt slavery". ... jkulik919@gmail.com

It amazes me that this factor was ignored after the Japan tsunami happened. I mean it wasn't so much of a semiconductor issues as it was almost all products coming out of Japan sky rocketed in cost for a few years issue. It hit the camera industry pretty hard which is why Nikon and Canon moved a lot of production from Japan to neighboring countries. If I'm remembering correctly I believe, as of this year, all of Nikon's production is in Taiwan now. It's like Governments and companies ignored/ignores the "natural phenomena" variable when choosing supply chains. They also ignore the old bit of wisdom to not keep all you eggs in one basket and now we are REALLY feeling the effects of that globally.

The one thing I'm thankful for COVID for is making the US, and the entire world, realize that they need redundant everything. Backup power supplies, solar power or something in case the grid fails, more automation in and more efficient manufacturing, the need for more efficient supply chains, the need to have a inventory of things incase a component shortage happens, the benefit new technology can bring, etc.
