TSMC cuts off Chinese chip designer linked to Huawei
Briefly

"The investigation of the US Commerce Department on possible TSMC and Huawei link is not related to Sophgo and its product. Sophgo has never engaged in any direct or indirect business relationship with Huawei."
"TSMC raised the alarm after a customer placed orders for a chip closely resembling that of Huawei's Ascend 910B, a high-end AI accelerator aimed at AI training and inference workloads."
"Bitmain, a Chinese crypto equipment firm associated with Sophgo, has also denied involvement in the investigation, calling allegations 'false and baseless.'"
"Huawei has been subject to intense scrutiny and export controls going back to 2019, after fears the Chinese IT giant could bake backdoors into its equipment landed it on the US Entity list."
