Semiconductor giant Nvidia is developing a new China-tailored artificial intelligence (AI) chip that complies with US export regulations and will enable users to link multiple units to create high-performance computing clusters, according to a report by digital publication The Information.
Nvidia plans to produce more than 1 million units of its new B30 chip this year, the report said, amid efforts by the company to preserve its market share in the world’s second-largest economy in the face of Washington’s tightened tech restrictions.
Santa Clara, California-based Nvidia did not immediately respond to a request for comment on Monday.
Nvidia is expected to introduce its new China-tailored graphics processing unit (GPU) in July, according to a Jefferies research note on Monday. It said the AI chip would likely be based on the company’s Blackwell platformwhich was introduced last year.
Speculation on Nvidia’s potential new GPU for China has intensified since the company revealed in mid-April new US export controls on its H20 chipswhich were designed for Chinese customers. Nvidia said it would take US$5.5 billion in charges under that measure.
