(Washington / Hanoi / Amsterdam Composite Electric) U.S. government starts to further tighten the restrictions on China's export semiconductor manufacturing equipment to prevent China's advanced chip industry.
Bloomberg quoted insiders reports that the new restrictions on the Bayeng government known to meet the US company will be introduced soon, and it may be announced next month.New measures may double the machine that must apply for a special export permit.
The chip industry is still trying to deal with restrictions implemented by the United States last October. Now that new rules are coming, the pressure on the industry will increase.
It is rumored that the United States is ready to coordinate export restrictions on China and Japan
Last restrictions ordering that in addition to stipulating that certain machines must apply for export permits, it also limits US citizens to countries and regions that may pose a threat to national security in China.Officials are also limited to selling technology or providing technical support to customers for specific types of products.
According to informed people, the United States is preparing to coordinate export restrictions on China in coordination with the two major chip equipment with the Netherlands and Japan this time.Among the required machines for semiconductors, about 17 export permits are currently exported.If the Netherlands and Japan follow up, this number will double.
Among the world's major chip equipment manufacturers, the United States accounts for three, namely Applied Materials, KLA Corp., and Lamling Group (Lam Research Corp.).
They have held global chip manufacturing as the Tokyo Electron LTD. TOKYO ELECTRON LTD.) and ASML HOLDING NV in the Netherlands.If they cannot buy cutting -edge products they produce, it is difficult to build factories that can produce the most advanced chips.
Bynden government has been lobbying restrictions on going up with the United States in Tokyo and Hague.The Netherlands recently announced specific measures to limit semiconductor technology exports.
The Dutch Minister of Trade Schraina Max told Congress on Wednesday (March 8) that the government should control the exit of Deep Ultra Violet Lithography.This is the second advanced semiconductor technology under the light carved giant Asmi.The Dutch government has long banned Acemi from selling the most advanced ultraviolet light equipment to Chinese companies.
Under the pressure of continuous tightening export restrictions, Asmore's supplier has considered changing to Southeast Asia to set up factories.
According to Reuters, representatives of more than a dozen technology companies in the Netherlands will visit Vietnam, Malaysia and Singapore next week to discuss the possibility of expanding business or factories locally.
The explanation document of the Dutch official agency convened by this visit shows that almost all of these companies are Asto's contractors, and some have production facilities in China.
Files also revealed that Singapore is a possible place for considering the area headquarters.
