The semiconductor industry is observing higher demand for IT components, peripherals, and consumer electronics than it did in 2019. This could be due to the pandemic, the enforced work-from-home situation, and the contactless functioning of many essential and non-essential services. The auto semiconductor space is highly fragmented; therefore, it has a complicated value and revenue split across Tier I, Tier II, and Tier III suppliers. Tier III suppliers posses wafer-level capabilities; hence, this level is highly consolidated and dominated by a few manufacturers from Asia. The current crisis is due to Tier III suppliers' inability to meet the sudden spike in demand from all consumer segments, particularly from automotive.>
