Nvidia orders 300,000 H20 chips from TSMC due to robust China demand, Reuters reports

TAIWAN, JUL 29 – Nvidia placed a 300,000-unit order with Taiwan's TSMC after U.S. lifted the April ban, responding to strong demand from China amid ongoing export license approvals.

  • Nvidia placed orders for H20 chips with TSMC, after asking Chinese companies to submit volume forecasts, amid ongoing export restrictions.
  • Amid China’s demand, Nvidia ordered 300,000 H20 chips from TSMC last week, as the Trump administration's recent approval of H20 GPU sales to China remains unconfirmed.
  • Market reports show Nvidia boosted H20 orders with TSMC before the April ban, as repair demand surged for other Nvidia GPUs in China.
  • Following the order, U.S. legislators condemned giving China access to H20 chips, warning it could impede U.S. AI leadership, and the U.S. Department of Commerce has yet to approve the export licenses.
  • Nvidia warned that losing market access could impede U.S. AI leadership, arguing that maintaining Chinese interest in H20 is vital to prevent developers switching to Huawei.
