Luckily i do have parts for some drives , and i keep searching for alternatives MosFets , but this is serious !
Even parts like heatsink insulators and plastic spacers are either non existant or triple the price . The DSpic30F3010 was under $5 2 years ago, and now its doubled .. same with all cpu's
Almost all the Popular CPU's by Microchip , Atmel and others have no stock .
Is China playing games and holding back parts ? How can Microchip and other semiconductor manufacturers pay the bills of there is zero stock ?
