The U.S. government considers sanctions on several Chinese technology companies, including Changxin, to limit China's ability to develop advanced semiconductors.
According to Bloomberg News Sunday (March 10), sources revealed that the Industrial and Security Agency of the US Department of Commerce is considering adding Changxin to the entity list that limits US technology.
The chip produced by Changxin storage is widely used in products such as computer servers and smart cars.Its competitors are Micron Technology, Samsung Electronics, and SK Hynix.
The Industry and Security Commission of the Ministry of Commerce and the White House National Security Council will not comment.Changxin Storage has not responded to the review request for the time being.
Huawei launched a 5G mobile phone with advanced 7 -nanometer chip made of Chinese in August last year.At that time, the US Minister of Commerce Raymond was visiting China, and she hinted that the development of China's chip industry was going further than expected.Raymond Duo said that the United States will take as strong actions as possible to maintain national security.
The Bayeng government has stepped up the use of the entity list of the Ministry of Commerce to prevent Chinese companies from obtaining the latest American technology.Unless the Ministry of Commerce's special permit is obtained, US suppliers are banned from selling certain advanced products, equipment and components to companies on the list.
Several major Chinese technology companies have been sanctioned, including Huawei's chip manufacturing partner Zhongxin International and photoresal manufacturers Shanghai Microelectronics Equipment.In 2022, Changxin Storage, Changjiang Storage, was also added to the entity list.
In addition to the blacklist, the United States has also urged allies to cooperate more closely to curb the rise of China, and call on the Netherlands, Germany, South Korea, and Japan to further tighten the restrictions on China's acquisition of semiconductor technology.
