Thanks ! Italy and all the EU must develop a very smart Semiconductors Investment Strategy, from Processors, SoC , FPGA, ASIC, etc. to basic local hardware so their Auto+Aviation+Ship Industry can handle the next Crisis. If things get from bad to worst , Europe must be able to assemble simple tablets w/ VoIP, etc. at the very least, and don't find itself , like today, with slowing down factories or even forced to close down full production lines due to chip shortages , that is unnecessary incompetence, in my opinion. A good read : " Why there is a global semiconductor shortage, how it's started..." scmp com . In my opinion NXP getting caught unprepared , TSMC builds their chips , and Intel problems to expand its single Factory in Ireland , never mind building a cutting edge one , are unacceptable. Consumer Electronics, Home appliances , Microcontrollers for Transportation, Videoconference Tablets , etc. , EU must be chip self-sufficient or it will never make it.
