Nvidia is working on a version of its new flagship AI chips for the China market that would be compatible with current U.S. export controls, four sources familiar with the matter said.
The AI chip giant in March unveiled its "Blackwell" chip series, which is due to be mass-produced later in the year.
A version of a chip from Nvidia's Blackwell series for the Chinese market would boost the U.S. firm's efforts to fend off those challenges.
Expectations are high that the U.S. will continue to keep up the pressure on semiconductor-related export controls.
The U.S. wants the Netherlands and Japan to further restrict chipmaking equipment to China, sources have said.
