📈 Top Demand Surges (Most Inquired Models)

Dramatic gains in memory, power, and RF-related ICs marked this week’s spike in sourcing activity:

• MT40A2G8SA-062E:F jumped +436.52%, leading the surge in DDR4 memory interest.

• UCC28C45DR and ADL5303ACPZ-R7 followed closely with gains over +400%, signaling higher demand for power control and optical logarithmic amplifier applications.

• Communication and multimedia SoCs like MIMX8MM6DVTLZAA and FPGA models like EP4CE22E22C8N also saw over +280% gains.

Meanwhile, legacy STM32 chips maintained their dominance:

• STM32F103C8T6 inquiries rose modestly +1.96%, while niche variants like STM32F103CBU6 surged +275%.

💸 Top Price Movements

Top Increases:

• 88SE9215A1-NAA2C000 soared +285.59%, alongside analog converters like AD7705BRZ and AMS1117-3.3, each rising over +280%.

• Battery and charging-related ICs such as BQ25792RQMR and BQ25601RTWR posted strong upward movement, each over +230%.

Top Declines:

• Price pressure hit discrete and rectifier components hard:

  • S1M (-94.39%), KA3525A (-93.71%), and AO4805 (-91.52%) led the downward trend.

  • Other popular drops include ULN2803A, SD05T1G, and ESD protection models like PSM712-LF-T7.

🏭 Inventory Trends

Inventory Surge:

• Massive restocking seen in linear and reference voltage regulators:

  • LM1117-3.3 (+23934.91%), REF193GSZ (+11359.85%), and REF3030AIDBZ climbed sharply.

• Other big movers include MAX5986AETE+, LM3409HVMY, and K4A8G085WB-BCRC – possibly due to forward allocation planning.

Inventory Declines:

• Top 10 declining models all dropped over 98%:

  • ADP1755ACPZ, PMEG6045ETPX, and SIP32431DR3-T1GE3 lead the list.

  • Sensor and interface chips like AD797ARZ and CA-IF1051HS also depleted rapidly, pointing to constrained lead times ahead.

🧭 Cerametronics Weekly Insight
While STM32 models stabilize after recent volatility, attention has shifted sharply toward memory (DDR4, NAND), analog power controllers, and wireless RF support. Stockpiling in key regulators and converters suggests OEMs are hedging against lead time risk as demand cycles intensify mid-quarter.
