the chip maker said in a filing the U.S. government has informed the company it has imposed a new licensing requirement, effective immediately, covering any exports of Nvidia’s A100 and upcoming H100 products to China, including Hong Kong, and Russia.
The government “indicated that the new license requirement will address the risk that the covered products may be used in, or diverted to, a ‘military end use’ or ‘military end user’ in China and Russia,” the filing said.
