It is still impossible to supply modern products
One of the strongest blows by the US government on Huawei was the ban on cooperation with American companies, as well as companies using American technology. The main problem in this is Huawei’s inability to cooperate with TSMC, which has been producing top-end mobile platforms for the Chinese giant for many years.
TSMC got permission to trade with Huawei, but it’s useless
As reported, TSMC, like many others, applied to the relevant American authorities in order to obtain permission to work with Huawei, and allegedly received it as a result. True, the permit implies the ability to sell to a Chinese company only products created using mature technologies. There is no decryption, but the source says that now mature technological processes are considered “thicker” 28 nm. Of course, such Huawei platforms are not required, that is, the permission, if it was actually issued by the TSCM, will not have any special impact on the business of the Chinese company.
