Why It Matters
**Why it matters** MLCC components are the backbone of AI inference chips; a tightening supply and rising prices are forcing manufacturers to shift toward higher‑capacity designs or alternative packaging, compressing margins and accelerating the race to secure supply chains. This cost squeeze could cascade into higher AI service prices and catalyze re‑engineering of low‑power models to meet budget constraints.
