TEST & FAILUREÂ RATES
In Q1 2025, 79.3% of tested components met quality standards, while 12.5% required further evaluation, and 8.2% were deemed unacceptable.
While most components passed, nearly 1 in 5 required further inspection or were rejected, highlighting ongoing supply chain risks.
By Device Type
Top 10 Component Types by Failure Rate
| 1. System on a Chip (SoC) 2. CPU 3. Module 4. Regulator 5. Synthesizer |
6. Inductor 7. Relay 8. Converter 9. Bus 10. Clock Generator |
This ranking is determined by the proportion of failed results compared to the total units tested in each category. While some failures stem from aging or mishandling, others could indicate more serious quality issues or potential counterfeit threats

PRODUCT UPDATES
Integrated Circuits
Texas Instruments, ADI, and NXPÂ prioritize analog/power ICs and fab upgrades, securing automotive windows; lead-time pressure persists, with logic/programmable ICs easier to source than memory and passive lines.
Maxim Integrated launches extended automotive-qualified ICs, TI extends industrial portfolios, and ADI offers long-term allocation agreements for OEMs to secure critical IC supply.
FPGA
AMD/Xilinx and Intel segment supply: commodity families stable, but UltraScale+ and automotive-grade face long allocations; OEMs encouraged toward early commitments and partner boards to secure FPGA capacity.
Lattice Semiconductor provides low-power automotive FPGAs, AMD and Xilinx prioritize hyperscaler/telecom allocations, creating a two-tier supply between commodity and high-end SKUs.
Passives
Murata, TDK, and Yageo expand high-value dielectric and MLCC production, prioritizing automotive/industrial allocations; Murata begins new 0402 47µF MLCC runs, reinforcing constrained specialty product availability.
KEMET adds automotive capacitor production, Murata and TDK reinforce wafer capacity, while OEMs adopt multi-vendor sourcing and blanket purchase strategies to manage lead-time risks.
MANUFACTURER UPDATES
SK Hynix
SK hynix has completed development of HBM4 preparing for mass production of this next-generation memory product aimed at ultra-high-performance AI applications.
Samsung
Samsung has reduced the price of its 2nm wafers to $20,000, undercutting TSMC’s $30,000 price by 33%, to ensure utilization of its 2nm production capacity amid heightened.
Micron
Micron has projected higher-than-expected revenue for Q1 2026, driven by growing demand for its high-bandwidth memory (HBM) products amid the global AI boom.
Intel
Intel has approached TSMC to explore potential investments or partnerships, aiming to secure external investments amid ongoing challenges in the competitive chip industry.
