Trump Tightens Screws on Chinese Chip Manufacturing

President Donald Trump has taken a significant step in restricting China’s access to advanced chip technology. The U.S. administration is demanding American companies that develop software used for semiconductor design to halt sales of such services to Chinese entities. This directive, implemented through official letters from the Bureau of Industry and Security within the Commerce Department, targets major EDA players like Cadence, Synopsys, and Siemens EDA.
