I used to buy Cyclone 4 EP4CE6E22 for under 20 CNY on taobao. Last time I bought in December.

Now the cheapest I can find is 60 CNY.

SiliconWizard:
Have you heard of semiconductor shortage?

KE5FX:
We're paying $200 for low-end Artix-7 FPGAs that normally cost about $60.  :palm:  Welcome to the new normal, I guess.

Does it apply to older chips as well?

The question is whether those chips you buy are old stock or if some chinese fab still produces them. I do not know.

But even if those are just old stock, I wouldn't be surprised if sellers upped their prices just to follow the trend.
