How is Chipageddon affecting you?

Yeah, about ADI being the good guys.  Find me some LT8650s or LT3086IRs or any number of other LT power products, and let's talk.  :'(

I think you have to differentiate between parts not being available due to high demand, which is the downside of success, and obsoleting parts because your main customer doesn't want them anymore, screwing everyone else who designed them in.

Which should be a good warning in that it is hard to fix a bad reputation.

DC-DC converters are generally very hard to source right now.  I expect a lot of the fab capacity is taken up by automotive products, their power electronics parts would use similar processes.

For values of "right now" equal to "the last three years."
