ABSTRACT
Since 2020, there has been a major supply shortage of semiconductors across the globe with no end in sight. As almost all modern devices and electronics require semiconductors, many industries are struggling to meet strong consumer demand The covid pandemic is not only to blame for this shortage, for instance the semiconductor supply chain contained already many vulnerabilities and weak points that were merely exasperated by the current situation. In this paper, an overview of the semiconductor supply chain is performed with a focus on its main vulnerabilities. The main reasons behind the shortages are discussed and the impacts on many industries are examined. Finally, recommendations and remedies are suggested. Copyright (C) 2022 The Authors.
