Perhaps only the defense and space industry can safely do without the use of foreign electronic components. What do practitioners think about this? It so happened in Russia that its own technologies for the production of electronic components simply do not exist. There is a widespread situation with the purchase of foreign technologies (from the same IBM), which for objective market reasons are not in demand abroad. In Russia, they are used, and the outdated 90 nm technology takes root in the domestic market, becoming a kind of "innovation" against the background of the widespread 130 nm technology. What to expect from the Russian component base?The experience of practitioners who have worked with her live shows that the tasks are being solved. Moreover, Russian electronic components have many special designs: protection against radiation, the ability to work in extreme temperatures, etc. But who, besides the military and astronauts, needs them? Many "experienced" electronics engineers do not even have questions about reliability. But there are questions about the assortment, which is significantly already foreign. And if we talk about the price, then some positions are ten times more expensive! Adding to the problems is the fact that delivery in bulk is customary for Russian manufacturers of components, i.e. in a state that is absolutely unsuitable for quick start-up in series production. What if all Russian electronics manufacturers switch to domestic components? In this idealized situation, the capacity for the production of components in Russia is simply not enough. There can be no question of any economic efficiency in such conditions. What to do with high performance tasks? Unfortunately, Russia missed the market for such solutions for a long time. Under the onslaught of foreign supply, Russian electronics manufacturers did not even think about using something domestic. After all, before the sanctions there was always an opportunity to buy abroad, now this opportunity is under threat. Global leadership in high-performance processors remains in the US and Europe. The Russian electronics industry could become completely cut off from advanced technologies. With regard to consumer electronics, there is a way out - to use the achievements of the Middle Kingdom or South Korea. What about industrial electronics?Looking for alternate supply routes? After all, even the leading South Korean companies use electronic components ... from the USA in their industrial solutions. There are also interesting examples in Russia when high-performance platforms are created domestically. An example is the production of semiconductors based on gallium arsenide. There are threats and there are ways to overcome them. Will they be able to block everything? Today, electronics manufacturers have begun to experience problems with packaging, which even theoretically has a dual purpose. Most often, these are small-scale components that do not have a large number of manufacturers and suppliers. Business practitioners believe that closing all electronic components for Russia is unrealistic. They are produced in billions of pieces per year, and it is not possible to trace their path from production to the consumer even in an age of high informatization. ◄ Back JSC "EleSy", Russia, 634021, Tomsk, st.
