Viking Tech said demand from AI, data centers, server power, military, and aerospace applications has kept capacity fully loaded as it enters the fourth quarter of 2026, with its book-to-bill ratio still at 1.5, though down slightly from the April peak of 1.7. The thin-film resistor maker said average lead time for both precision thin-film and standard thick-film resistors has now extended to 25 weeks, or nearly half a year, while some orders are already scheduled into the second half of 2027. The company said shortages are concentrated in 1206 and 0603 sizes.
