US Blocks TSMC Exports to China, Raising Industry Concerns. The US has revoked Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company’s licence to export advanced technology to China a move that could disrupt its operations in Chinese factories producing older-generation chips. TSMC said it is reviewing the decision and will engage with the US government stressing it remains committed to keeping its Chinese facility running smoothly. This follows similar actions last week affecting South Korea’s Samsung and SK Hynix, limiting their ability to send American-made tech to China. TSMC, the world’s largest chipmaker, supplies semiconductors for major clients including Nvidia. The restrictions are part of broader US efforts to protect its economy, though temporary waivers were initially granted to some firms. The timeline for new approvals remains uncertain, raising questions about potential delays in shipments and the wider impact on the global tech industry.
