Memorial Day is more than a long weekend. It is a day to pause and remember the service members who made the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom.

From all of us at Futaba, we honor their courage and hold their families in our hearts today.

Texas Instruments. Onsemi. NXP. Infineon. ROHM. Alpha & Omega Semiconductor.

All of them raised component prices in April 2026.
The increases range from 15% to 85% depending on the part. These are not temporary adjustments. Raw material costs, energy costs, and logistics costs keep climbing.

For medical device OEMs, this hits differently. Your components go through FDA validation. Your approved vendor lists are short. Swapping a part means re-qualification, new documentation, and months of delay. A price spike on a validated component leaves you with two bad options: absorb the cost or slow down production while you re-qualify.

Here is what this means for your next build:
Your BOM cost today is not your BOM cost next quarter
Lead times are stretching on the exact parts medical builds depend on
Locking in pricing now protects your margins through full production runs

At Futaba, we work with medical device OEMs to review BOMs early, flag validated parts at risk of price increases, and identify qualified alternatives before the pressure reaches your production line.

The teams who plan ahead right now will hold their margins. The ones who wait will absorb the cost.

We are booking facility tours for medical device teams who want to see how we manage component risk and production quality firsthand.
