Samsung Electro-Mechanics’ delivery lead times for low-capacity, high-capacity and automotive multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCCs) reached 52 weeks in October as AI server demand added pressure to supplies. Lead times for all three categories exceeded 30 weeks in September. At 52 weeks, some customers face a wait of about a year between placing an order and receiving the components. The longer waits extend beyond Samsung Electro-Mechanics. Yageo’s main MLCC products have delivery windows of 30 to 52 weeks, while lead times at NIC Components and Viking have also increased. Delays that affected high-capacity products now reach lower-capacity and automotive parts.
