On September 3, word got out that on September 1, Texas Instruments had issued a price adjustment notice to its clientele, heralding a fresh round of price surges for an array of products, with the magnitude of the increases differing from one product to another. Texas Instruments clarified that these price modifications were driven by market trends and the escalating costs within the supply chain. This move represents the company's third price increment this year, coming on the heels of prior hikes in March and May. Insiders from the industry suggest that a third round of price escalations for analog and power semiconductors is now unavoidable this year, with only minor discrepancies in the timing of these hikes across various manufacturers.
