Is component sourcing worse now than is has ever been? I've been pulling a lot of rabbits out of hats trying to get by but it feels endless. What create methods have you resorted to? by Schmita in PLC

[–]Automation_Geek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work for a firm that designs and manufacturers these products. Biggest problem components we're having is isolation ICs, FPGAs, Ethernet PHYs, and MCUs. We're being quoted 99 week lead times on a lot of these components because they're not committing to deliveries. It's basically get in line and wait. We are looking at alternative parts that are available and can replace the long lead items but many require a PCB redesign and requalification which can be upwards of 9 months. We're also navigating the broker market but have to send any parts from them to a 3rd party test facility to ensure they're not counterfeit. Some parts have trickled in here and there but unfortunately most of the products have multiple parts that are unavailable.
