Description
Technical requirements have long been the main challenge for engineers that had to push the performance boundaries higher and higher. In the last years, the performance challenges were silently replaced by the electronic component availability issue that spread worldwide. Even companies with established supply chains are faced with long and non-predictable lead times, in addition to extreme price increases. As some components are not available in the market anymore, replacements and workarounds must be implemented.
This contribution will present how the shortage of components has affected Instrumentation Technologies and what are the countermeasures the company has taken to still provide its customers with high-quality instrumentation in relatively short and reasonable delivery times.
