2026 MLCC: Sourcing Strategies for High-Capacitance and High-Voltage Ceramic Capacitors
News Jun 30, 2026
The 2026 structural MLCC shortage, driven by booming demand from AI servers and 800V electric vehicles alongside rising raw material costs, is severely impacting supplies of 10μF, 22μF, and 47μF capacitors. To safeguard production, engineers and procurement managers must abandon just-in-time models, implement strategic buffering, avoid risky design substitutions like tantalum, and utilize deep-inventory partners to navigate prolonged lead times.
