Chinese Technology Group Huawei is planning to introduce Chinese customers with massive delivery of its progressive AI chip 910C next month. It specifically reported the Reuters News Agency on Monday and refers to two people familiar with the matter. according to the report Some have already done delivery.
As the sources of the Reuters continue to report, Huawei’s 910C chip “is more than an architectural development”. For the 910C graphics processor, two 910B processors are added to a single housing using advanced integration techniques. It is obtained with a performance that is compared to the H100 chip from Nvidia. This means that it has dual computing power and storage capacity of 910B. In addition, further progress is made, such as better support for various AI workload data. On the demand for Reuters, Huawei refused to comment on 910C chips and distribution plans for its skills.
USA tightening export restrictions
The subject is primarily a certain explosive as President Donald Trump’s US government tightened export sanctions on AI chips for China. From now on, she demands a license to export AI chips to China, as it was known in the last week. Among other things, the US Group is affected by NVDia’s H20 chips export license.
Washington is trying to cut China from China’s most advanced AI products, including B22 flagship chip in an attempt to ban China’s technological development. For example, the H100 chip was banned by the US government in 2022 before it came to the market. Since 2022, NVIDIA and other manufacturers have only been allowed to sell GPU accelerator to China only.
Tuesday: New Ae Chip from Huawei, Hegseth shared war plans with familyNVIDIA initially used a flaws to export Chinese to snatch versions of its AI accelerator, which the US government also banned this A800 and H800 AI accelerator for China under Biden 2023. The H20 chip in turn is based on the same chip architecture, but was particularly optimized for American export sanctions. Nvidia is likely to spend several billion US dollars in new American export control for AI chips; Intel is also affected.
Freedom in chip production
China, in turn, tries to become independent in chip production in view of these developments – and is on the right path. Huawei and SMIC chip applications especially invest heavy in wearing local chips. SMIC can produce chips with 7-nenometers structures, but faces the problem of procurement of modern lithograph systems. Dutch World Market Leader ASML cannot sell machines with extreme ultraviolet (EUV) exposure technology to China. Meanwhile, Huawei deal with Google’s Android world with its smartphone software. Later last year, the Android-Free Smartphone series “Mate 70”, built in Huaweis, created a stir, which Chinese companies in the region quickly progress.
Recent export sanctions by the Ministry of Trade for NVIDIA H20 means climbing Huaweis 910C GPU now (Chinese) AI model will be a hardware of choice for developers and for the use of inferior capabilities, “said Paul Triolo, a specialist of the Retters of the Advisory Company Albright Stonebridge Group.
According to Reuters report, Huawei sent a pattern of its 910C processor to several technical companies at the end of last year and began to accept the order. However, the news agency could not find out which companies would mainly produce 910C. An anonymous source suggests that Huawei’s at least 910C processor semiconductors uses the TSMC formed by the TSMC for the Chinese company Sofo. On the demand for Reuters, however, Huawei stressed that it does not use any sophgo chips manufactured by TSMC. TSMC also explained to follow regulatory requirements and did not supply Huawei from mid -2020.
