DRAM chipmaker Nanya Technology Corp (南亞科技) yesterday said that it would continue supplying memory chips to Huawei Technologies Co (華為), as its exports contain less than 25 percent of US-origin software and technology, in compliance with US trade rules.

Nanya is the second local chipmaker, after Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co (台積電), to announce it is staying with Huawei after the Chinese firm on May 16 was added to a US trade blacklist.

Under US regulations, items not made in the US that contain more than 25 percent of US-origin content by value are subject to US export controls.

The company’s DRAM chips contain only single-digit percentages of US-origin software or technology, Nanya said.    [FULL  STORY]
