TSMC suspended shipments to China firm after chip found on Huawei processor, sources say

Quick Summary:

Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company suspended shipments to China-based chip designer Sophgo after a chip it made was found on a Huawei AI processor, according to two people familiar with the matter.

In 2021, prosecutors raided Bitmain's operations in Taiwan and accused two Bitmain affiliates of illegally recruiting Taiwanese semiconductor engineers and illegally conducting research and development activities, according to a statement by the New Taipei prosecutors office.

Before then, TSMC supplied chips for Huawei's Ascend series, sources told Reuters earlier this year.
