According to an internal memo from Texas Instruments (TI), the company is considering a price increase. A preliminary catalog of price hikes was finalized on June 2, affecting over 3,300 part numbers, although these statistics are incomplete. The breakdown of the proposed price increase ranges is as follows:
- ≥ 100%: 9%
- 50–100%: 5%
- 30–50%: 1%
- 15–30%: 55%
- < 15%: 30%
Certain signal chain-related part numbers, such as Analog-to-Digital Converters (ADCs) and operational amplifiers, have seen price increases that exceeded expectations, with hikes of 100% or more. Meanwhile, products that had previously experienced significant price reductions, such as isolators, Low-Dropout Regulators (LDOs), and DC-DC converters, are now facing moderate price increases of approximately 20%, which aligns with initial expectations. It’s important to note that this price adjustment is global and not confined to the Chinese market.
