<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>TAIPEI: A global shortage of chips for mid-end consumer products is starting to ease and will be much better come the second half of the year, a senior executive at Taiwan's Acer<\/a> Inc, the world's No. 5 PC vendor by shipments, said on Tuesday.

From delayed car deliveries to a supply shortfall in home appliances to
costlier smartphones<\/a>, businesses and consumers across the globe are facing the brunt of an unprecedented shortage in semiconductor microchips<\/a>.

Originally concentrated in the auto industry, the shortage has now spread to a range of
other consumer electronics<\/a>, including smartphones, refrigerators and microwaves.

Andrew Hou, Acer's president for Pan-Asia Pacific Operations, told reporters in Taipei that since the problem first became apparent in the fourth quarter of last year, the supply chain has \"jumped into action\" as suppliers worked to address the situation.

Hou said he expected better supplies in the second quarter compared with the first quarter of this year, and that the situation in the second half will be better than the second quarter.

\"That's what we are seeing at the moment,\" he added.

The shortage stems from a confluence of factors as carmakers, which shut plants during the COVID-19 pandemic last year, compete against the sprawling consumer electronics industry for chip supplies.

Consumers have stocked up on laptops, gaming consoles and other electronic products during the pandemic, leading to tighter inventory. They also bought more cars than industry officials expected last spring, further straining supplies.

Hou said that sales in his region, which excludes China, are booming, as companies and governments seek laptop computers to help people study and work from home.

\"What is lacking is not the high end chips - it's the ones people have for a long time not cared about.\"

泛亚宏碁总裁安德鲁•侯太平洋操作,首先在台北告诉记者,因为问题变得明显在去年第四季度,供应链已“跳进行动”为供应商努力解决情况。

侯表示,他预计第二季度更好的供应与今年第一季度相比,,下半年形势将比第二季度。

“这就是我们所看到的,”他补充道。

短缺源于汽车制造商的主要原因,而关闭工厂去年COVID-19大流行期间,与庞大的消费电子行业的芯片供应。

消费者已经囤积了笔记本电脑、游戏机平台和其他电子产品在大流行期间,导致更严格的库存。他们还买了更多的汽车比行业官员预计去年春天,进一步使供应吃紧。

侯教授说,在他的地区销售,不包括中国,正在蓬勃发展,公司和政府寻求笔记本电脑可以帮助人们学习和工作。

“缺少的不是高端芯片——这是那些人很长一段时间不关心。”
