A new study by TechInsights has linked TSMC-designed chips to Huawei's AI accelerators, raising eyebrows amid ongoing US sanctions against the Chinese tech giant. Despite TSMC's claims of no active partnership with Huawei since September 2020, the investigation has revealed that a TSMC-made Ascend 910B chip was found within Huawei technology. This discovery comes as the US Department of Commerce investigates TSMC's involvement. Huawei continues to navigate the challenges posed by US restrictions, having previously relied on Qualcomm chips to compete with Apple and Samsung.
