The U.S. Department of Commerce is investigating a potential export sanctions violation by TSMC, which may have produced chips for Huawei. Recently, TSMC notified the Department of Commerce about an order for a chip similar to the Huawei Ascend 910B, designed for AI training and subject to U.S. sanctions.

TSMC is the world's largest producer of high-tech chips. In 2020, the company stopped supplying products to Huawei due to imposed restrictions. These sanctions aim to limit Chinese companies, including Huawei, from accessing advanced semiconductors.

TSMC stated that it complies with all export regulations, and no investigation has been initiated against the company at this time.
